Chance (Panama)

Directed by: Abner Benaim

Comedy

91min

Chance is a fun tropical comedy that takes place in the luxurious mansion of the Gonzalez-Dubois, an aristocratic Caribbean family, where Paquita and Toña work as domestic servants. As the family is thrilled to prepare their shopping weekend in Miami, the employees, tired of mistreatment, defaulting on their payments, and the lack of respect, lay out a very different plan for them. What nobody imagines is the great secret that the family hides ...A comedy where appearances deceive, and where irony and social criticism are also protagonists.
