Synopsis

The year is 1982, and an economic crisis is hitting Mexico. The always charming, perfect, and spoiled Sofia, the queen bee of her friend group, faces the unimaginable—her social decay. Cracks appear in Sofia and her husband’s manicured lives as the social and economic order shifts around them.

Our take

Opulence turns sour in Alejandra Márquez Abella’s sophomore feature, a slick and delightfully corrosive look at the downfall of the 80s Mexican jet set. Topped by Ilse Salas’ brilliant turn as a desperate housewife of the era, this wicked satire becomes a class nightmare Buñuel would approve of.
