HOUSEKEEPER
This short film appears to be a classic switched places scenario – a white housekeeper and a Latina boss. But while the housekeeper makes a sandwich in a beautiful modern kitchen and the boss looks for a Halloween costume for her daughter it becomes clear that the script can’t flip completely. Both the fantastical world of this film and our own reality come in and out of focus as the housekeeper asks her boss for help with her son.
