Rating: 3.5/5 --
Slow and quiet throughout, like the two lead ladies, there is a kind of fading elegance to it. Rough around the edges, wrinkled, but totally involving.

THE HEIRESSES almost subliminally alerts you to complexities of sexuality and status that many films would prefer to simplify. It also draws you into a social milieu that is both highly specific and intuitively accessible.

Rating: 4/5 --
It's a small story, but the points it makes about the corrosion wrought by class distinctions and the prejudices attached to them give it a dimension that will resonate wherever you happen to live.

Reeling Reviews
[T]he film exquisitely balances character study with shrewd commentary on the precarious hierarchy of class distinctions, the turbulent persistence of sexual desire and the lingering privileges of Paraguay’s elite.
Variety
4 stars out of 4 -- [U]nderneath the film's quiet is a heaving ocean of longing, restlessness, melancholy.
RogerEbert.com
By the end of the film, the audience feels like it knows his heroine at almost precisely the same time she has gotten to know herself. It's a minor kind of magic.

Product Description:
Paraguayan writer-director Marcelo Martinessi's first feature film is set in the intimate all-female universe of moneyed elites. Chela, a withdrawn painter, is forced to fend for herself after her partner Chiquita is jailed for bank fraud. As their prized possessions are sold off, Chela finds herself serving as a chauffeur to wealthy old ladies and slowly leaves her isolated existence behind.
