Synopsis
This Brazilian festival darling is a drama wrapped in something darker and more primal – but with musical numbers?! Basically: expect the unexpected. Set in São Paulo, the movie begins with the unexpected bond between a wealthy pregnant woman named Ana (Marjorie Estiano) and Clara (Isabél Zuaa), her new nanny. The good news is that Ana’s baby boy seems VERY healthy. The bad news? Ana is starting to sleepwalk and do some pretty weird things in the middle of the night...

Metacritic
This is a different kind of monster movie, no doubt. It’s beautiful and magical, and as aware of the real world as it is of classic Hollywood. Good Manners is a haunting tale of love — and the burdens that come with it.
There’s nothing especially wrong with the arty horror movie that Good Manners becomes, mind you, and the metamorphosis (unexpected, for those who haven’t read a review or seen the poster image, anyway) offers pleasures of its own.
