SPA25: Linda
Book Tickets
Synopsis
Australian premiere
Loosely based on the Argentine folk legend of Deolinda Correa, this feature film debut from Mariana Wainstein is an enthralling drama about class tensions, power dynamics and desire.
Self-assured, enigmatic, and effortlessly alluring, Linda (Eugenia “China” Suárez) steps into the role of housemaid in place of her cousin at the elegant home of a wealthy Buenos Aires family.
Surrounded by order, affluence, and routine, the household appears pristine, but Linda is no passive presence. As she blends domestic duties with moments of quiet rebellion, her very being unsettles the family’s delicate balance.
What begins as subtle disruption soon gives way to bolder transgressions. Linda’s unique magnetism stirs long-repressed needs in each family member, awakening fantasies and exposing the fragile façade of their contented lives. As secrets come to light, Linda discovers that seduction is power—and beneath the surface of privilege lies a far more complicated truth.
