In this playful, cross cultural family drama, an unexpected guest upends the lives of an Argentine mother and daughter over the course of an intimate birthday dinner one icy Chicago night.
Based on the play, The Abuelas, by Stephanie Alison Walker, this stand-alone short film also serves as a proof-of-concept for a feature length adaptation currently in development.
