Why watch this film?
A classic Argentine comedy movie released in 1985, 'Esperando la carroza' has impacted generations of viewers in that country, with the iconic comedian Antonio Gasalla in the leading role of Mamá Cora. Defined as an absurd and almost grotesque comedy that satirizes the contempt for the elderly, the film has achieved cult status among Latin American audiences, and in Argentina it remains a mandatory reference of popular culture for reflecting the particular idiosyncrasies of families in that country (there is even a documentary titled 'Carroceros', focused on the movie's fans). A great opportunity to get to know Argentine popular cinema.
