Criadas
6.0
Sandra returns to her cousin Mariana’s house in search of a photo of her late mother, who worked as a live-in maid for Mariana’s parents. Although they were raised together, Sandra, a dark-skinned Black woman, and Mariana, a light-skinned Black woman, experienced that house in vastly different ways. Their reunion forces them to confront long buried memories, issues of race, family, and belonging, while a supernatural force lurks around them.
