First come first serve.
Set in Paris in 1962, the story alternates between two different worlds. One is a traditional wealthy family in a comfortable apartment, whose lives are devoted to making money and meaningless socializing. The other is the underpaid and overworked domestic servants living in cramped conditions above them. As few French people want such work, the jobs are taken by Spanish women, eager to escape the poverty and oppression of Francoist Spain, who bring with them their native solidarity and human warmth.
DISCUSSION TOPICS – Regret, depression, making a life change, forgiveness, jealousy, servant-boss relations, differences in class, shame.
MESSAGE – Sometimes you must make dramatic changes to your life if you want to be happy.
