The women in the town do housework, take care of their families, and clean the cemetery every day. The days were not interesting, and there were no storms.
Raimunda is a stubborn woman, but she is still just one of many ordinary women in town. Until one day fate told her, now you should get busy.
It seems that men who drink beer and watch TV as a way of appearing in movies are often not good people. The same is true for Paco, who already has the most beautiful woman in town, but still misses his daughter. The director seems to have always tried to highlight Raimunda's body. The curves of the clothes and her movements have always made the buttocks appear unusually prominent, and the perpetual V-neck blouse is also full of temptation. I always think that the top-down scene of washing dishes, The sole purpose is to show you Raimunda's cleavage.

In the face of sudden changes, she does not panic, she answers the phone, sees the neighbor again, and she can immediately pick up the neighbor's restaurant key in order to figure out a way to store the corpse. come over. But the test is not over yet, since you are not afraid of one death, then another one will die. When he received the news of Aunt Paula's death when he was dealing with the body, he was calm and flawless. This woman is really unusual.
Do you have a party where you hide your body? This plot makes Raimunda bold and somewhat fake. Although I need money to live without my husband, I don't want to spend money on my cat as a bridesmaid.
Raimunda seems to be able to handle everything, but she makes people feel vaguely uneasy. If she always handles all the problems alone, it will only be a matter of time before she collapses. She needs another person, even if it's just to be with her.
The power of family love is endless. The return of mother is actually the return of Raimunda. The stubbornness in Raimunda's bones actually stems from the helplessness that no one can share and can only pick up on one shoulder. In the end, she finally decided to share the smile with her mother. It is so brilliant.
