Much Better Now is a short film exploring the relationship dynamics between Bete, a spontaneous, eccentric older woman, and Dora, an insecure, methodical young woman. Dora finds herself torn between compromising her principles to evict Bete for non-payment of rent or allowing her to stay, thereby opening the door to an unlikely friendship. The narrative delves into themes of abandonment in old age, friendship, and intergenerational connections, while exploring the internal conflicts of both characters.
