How To Clean A House in 10 Easy Steps
Beatriz Valencia, a domestic worker, and her daughter-filmmaker, Carolina, collaborate to create the fictional character of a writer. Together, mother and daughter capture the slippage between truth and fantasy, in a hybrid documentary that tells a story about immigration, labor, dreams and the power of fiction to spark emancipation.
