Featuring striking cinematography and outstanding performances, Carajita (which means annoying child) explores the tenuous relationship that exists between race, class, and family. Sarah, the pampered daughter of a corrupt oligarch whose family recently relocated to Las Terrenas, thinks of her Black Dominican nanny, Yarisa, as \u201cpart of the family.\u201d The two have a \u201cmother-daughter-like\u201d relationship that transcends their social standing. That illusion is put to the test when Yarisa\u2019s spirited daughter Mallory goes missing, challenging Sarah\u2019s na\u00efve beliefs. Boasting intuitive storytelling and confident direction, Carajita plays like a psychological thriller, deriving oppressive tension from unspoken inequalities and the impunity of privilege.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
