The Good Girls

Las niñas bien

59th TIFF: Greek Premiere

The dark side of the Mexican bourgeoisie is embossed on the well-preserved faces of its upper-class women, who refuse to accept the reality of a country in crisis. Sofia is one of them, the queen of a neat, glamorous beehive. Α sardonic film on the collective illusion of a society that prefers to see its declined reflection in the mirror, instead of real life through the open window.
