Workers

About This Movie

So, 'Workers' is this quiet little gem that really delves into the lives of its two main characters – Lidia and Rafael. Lidia, the maid, is incredibly devoted, but you can feel this weight of unreciprocated love she has for her employer's pet whippet instead of the matron herself. It’s this subtle reflection on class disparity. Then there's Rafael, who’s on the brink of retirement, and you can sense this mix of relief and melancholy in his character. The pacing is slow, but it kind of lingers in this contemplative way that builds up this atmosphere of resignation and hope. The performances are understated yet powerful, making every moment feel earned and authentic. It’s not flashy, but that's what gives it its unique charm.
