Monkey Business
When something goes wrong, everything gets worse.
Directed by Daniel Guzmán
Produced by La Canica Films, El Niño Producciones
A darkly comedic tale of three old friends whose misguided schemes to save a house spiral into escalating disaster, balancing humor with the melancholy of stalled lives.
Joaquin, Brujo and Luismi, three neighbourhood scoundrels, meet again after twenty years. Brujo and Luismi are still unemployed while Joaquin swears he has become an important businessman. However, one day he receives a notification that his mother's house has been repossessed for a loan. He will try to get the money he neds to avoid eviction, but the brilliant ideas of Brujo and Luismi will end up plunging Joaquin even deeper into misery
