Sebastian Silva's The Maid is an unflinching and humorous portrayal of domestic harmony gone awry.
After 23 years working as a devoted maid in an upper-class Chilean household, embittered and ailing Raquel (Sundance Film Festival and Gotham Award winner Catalina Saavedra) can no longer care for the family alone. Trapped by guilt, matriarch Pilar (Claudia Celedon) refuses to let Raquel go, even though it is clear their longtime maid is slowly unraveling. Instead, Pilar hires more help, throwing Raquel into a jealous frenzy. The seemingly happy home soon becomes a stage for Raquel's dirty tricks as she attempts to drive away anyone who threatens to take her place with darkly comedic and endearing results.
