Many Paraguayan women migrate from their villages to the city to earn money to support their families. As domestic workers, they become part of a system of exploitation accepted by society and legitimized by Paraguayan law. This is the story of one of them and everything she leaves behind when she goes.
Rated 7.3 on TMDB
A drama-documentary presented by Alan Yentob, with Benedict Cumberbatch in the lead role. Every word spoken by the actors in this film is sourced from the letters that Van Gogh sent to his younger brother Theo, and of those around him. What emerges is a complex portrait of a sophisticated, civilised and yet tormented man.
