(Un)lucky Sisters (2024)

(Un)lucky Sisters presents a simple yet effective plot: two sisters, Jesi and Angela, distanced by life and the absence of their father, are reunited by the inheritance of an apartment in Puerto Madero that hides an unexpected fortune. This Argentinian dramedy explores the fertile ground of affective and material needs, turning the discovery of money into a catalyst for forging a genuine bond.
