ROMA 2018 REVIEW




Roma is about a domestic helper and her relationship towards her masters. It portrays realistic concentration on both the help and the masters and their individual relations in love, insecurity, pain, and family.

I love the scene when Cleo was serving the family while watching television, she also tried to sit with them. And when one of the children put his arm around Cleo, portraying love and happiness towards the help.

Concluding the beautiful scene of masters and “domestic helper" in harmony with a request from one of the children to have some refreshments then follows many more request. Ending with Cleo going to the kitchen while her masters enjoys watching television.
