In his first feature length, which premiered at Berlinale receiving multiple awards, Paraguayan director Marcelo Martinessi tells the story of two women in a relationship for 30 years who have fallen on financial hard times and how dire circumstances wear down their union. After selling off their inherited possessions, Chela and Chiquita become desperate–Chiquita is imprisoned on fraud charges and Chela is forced to become a cab driver. When they think they are on the brink of hopelessness, Chela falls in a new love. The Heiressses is a unique take on class differences and women’s liberation, and a meritable work from Paraguayan cinema.

This film was a Meetings on the Bridge participant.
