Movie review:
- markuspm: Overview says “A woman and her daughter immigrate from Mexico in search of a better life in the United States and begin working for a family whose patriarch is a newly famous chef and whose wife lacks Security. Oh my gosh, that doesn’t understand what this movie is all about! What a boring description for such a passionate movie!
