Sara and her nanny Yarisa have a relationship that transcends their class and race conditions: they are the closest thing to a daughter-mother; but an accident will test their intimate loyalty, and the innocent illusion of never separating.



Silvina Schnicer, Ulises Porra

Carajita is their second feature.
