Just One Small Favor

The Gallardos are a rich, well-respected family, who spend their summers in a beautiful country house, which is taken meticulous care of by Amparito. Dearly loved by the family’s three children, Teresa, Benja and Aura, Amparito, known to them as Nanny, has been like a second mother to them. When they receive the sad news of her death, the three siblings travel to the village to say their last goodbyes and see Tomás, the deceased’s only son. What they weren’t expecting is that Amparito’s dying wish was to be buried in the family cemetery. The Gallardos are clear: there’s no way! After refusing to do this favor, they receive an inheritance from Amparito... Some letters in which, far from giving them a sweet goodbye, she gets even, revealing skeletons in closets and hurtful truths that will turn their lives upside down. What the hell was Nanny thinking?

Directed by Juana Macías, Just One Small Favor leans on a strong ensemble — Alfonso Bassave, Inma Cuesta, Gonzalo de Castro — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2023.
