Summary |
Mada is a fifty-something caretaker for a cluster of luxury beachside condos owned by a wealthy Rio de Janeiro family. Over the course of three consecutive summers, the film follows Mada as she invests in a roadside snack kiosk while tending to the very need of her condescending employers, becomes a bystander in a major money-laundering scandal, and eventually launches a whole new career. With every dizzying new turn of events, Mada manages to retain her high spirits, her sense of loyalty to those who deserve it, and her eagle eye for opportunity. Three Summers is a brilliant comedy about gross class disparity and the infinite resourcefulness of those who can never take anything for granted. |
