The 98-year-old extravagant ‘regent’ of a Mexican beauty empire and mother of eight children is not ready to let go. She still knows too little about life. She has never loved and has never been loved in return. But now her grandson has finished his studies and keeps his promise to shoot a film about her. In front of him and the camera, she is able to talk about the dark secret of her family and her deepest hurts. A tender and surreal chamber drama ensues that fully focuses on Mamacita and her castle including staff, there to keep out the country and the people. Playfully the grandson gives his grandmother her salvation.
