The artist invited middle-class teenagers to spend a week filming the daily activities of their housemaids. The film uses the raw footage that resulted from this re-negotiation of roles, which temporarily subverts a relationship based on subservience and invisibility. An immersion in a particular nook of Brazilian sociocultural space, the work examines an arrangement that jumbles relationships of employment and affection, protection and violence, familiarity and class struggle.
