Dominique
Set in an upper-class neighbourhood of the Dominican Republic, La Hembrita is an unsettling portrait of a middle-aged woman, Dominique, and her relations with family, servants and entourage.
It's Friday morning at Panamerican Machinery Inc., a company specialising in selling and repairing machines for construction and destruction. The employees are already winding down for the weekend, engaging in little rituals and routines when an unexpected turn of events shakes their peaceful monotony. Don Alejandro, the boss, lies dead at the back of the warehouse.
