Dioses (2008)

Synopsis of Dioses

The decadence and moral corruption of the idle rich is laid bare in this drama from Peruvian writer and director Josue Mendez. Twenty-something Andrea (Anahí de Cárdenas) was born and raised in a wealthy family, but she's begun to earn riches of her own as a successful fashion model. Andrea is more concerned with nightlife and hanging out with the right people than her career, but she's becoming famous enough to scandalize her father Agustin (Edgar Saba), a socialite who is more worried about what people think about him than the welfare of his children. Agustin, however, isn't very good at following his own advice -- he's living with his latest paramour, Elisa (Maricielo Effio), a coarse but beautiful woman from a poor family who is young enough to be his daughter. And as Andrea does battle with Elisa over Agustin's loyalties, Andrea's teenaged brother Diego (Sergio Gjurinovic) is wrestling with his incestuous desires for his sister. Dioses received its North American premiere at the 2007 Toronto Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
