When Clara, a lonely nurse from São Paulo’s outskirts, is hired by wealthy, enigmatic Ana to be her nanny, their working relationship blossoms into a tender lesbian romance. But Ana’s mysterious pregnancy brings a monstrous secret to light. Blending social realism with werewolf mythology, Good Manners reimagines female intimacy, care, and transformation in ways that blur the line between love and the monstrous.
