WRIF FILM: CARAJITA

There is love between Sarah (Cecile van Welie) and the family housekeeper who helped raise her, Yarisa (Magnolia Nunez). Their affection transcends the employer-employee relationship and approaches something more akin to that of mother and daughter. But there are barriers, too—of class and of race—and when a fatal event tears at the seams of their connection, those barriers threaten to become impossible chasms.
