A delightful farce about a young European man's first encounter with his Mexican boyfriend's mother, whose affectionate hold over her son is at once warm, puzzling and problematic. Set in an elegant Mexican hacienda on the occasion of a wedding, the comedy hinges on personal misunderstandings as well as droll cultural differences.

In a 1950s orphanage, a young girl reveals an astonishing talent for chess and begins an unlikely journey to stardom while grappling with addiction.
