The Gallardos are a filthy rich and disturbingly selfish family, formed by father (Gonzalo de Castro) and children: Teresa (Inma Cuesta), Benja (Diego Martín) and Aura (Sara Sálamo) who must face the last will of their dearest Tata, Amparo (Luisa Gavasa), the woman who took care of them when they were children and who now wants to be buried in the family pantheon. Nanny had everything in mind, and knowing that they were going to refuse, she leaves them a little poisoned gift that might even do them a favor. From there, a series of quarrels and misunderstandings arise between the family members, proving their deep selfishness, greed and vanity that dominates each of them.

Comedy of entanglements with Imma Cuesta (¨Primos: Cousins¨, ¨Los Buenos Modales¨), Diego Martín (¨Supernormal¨) and Sara Salámo (¨Brigada Costa del Sol¨) star in this acidic comedy of misunderstandings full of physical and twisted humor. Dealing with the Gallardos are a rich and respected family who spend their summers in a farmhouse cared for down to the smallest detail by Amparito, Tata , who, for the family's three children, Teresa, Benja and Aura, has been like a second mother, thing go wrong whe she dies and leaves a peculiar testament. El Favor directed by Juana Macías (¨Bajo el Mismo Techo¨) is about family and its ability to complicate our lives, says the director. A dead woman, revealed secrets, infidelity, classism in abundance, disgusting beings, a world full of appearances and lies and more lies... this is what this "The Favor" is about. All families have secrets and dark facts to hide but this one takes the cake. This is an extremely funny film with entertaining events , giggles , emotion , craziness, twists and love stories, though the result is mediocre. The film moves in fits and starts most of which would be desirable , with more traps the viewer resists any kind , and some moments of enjoyment and others quite a few embarrassing . This disconcerting film packs amusement , comical situations , tongue-in-cheek , surrealist comedy , adding conventional pitfalls and many other things. Despite everything, we appreciate the whole wins our hearts thanks to the surprising entanglements and twists of a plot that is as well put together as it is playful, friendly, effective entertainment, avoiding swearing, dirty talking, bad words, sexual scenes and other terrible condiments of current Spanish comedy.

It displays a lively and evocative musical score by Vanessa Garde. As well as a colorful and brilliant cinematography by Andreu Rebés , being shot in Barcelona and surroundings . The motion picture was mediocre but professionally directed by Juana Macías , but with no much originality. She has directed a few acceptable films as Planes para mañana , Embarazados , Bajo el mismo techo and episodes of TV series as Madres (TV Series) , Minnie & You , La parte de atrás (TV Movie) and some Short movies .
