Together, mother and daughter capture the slippage between truth and fantasy in a hybrid documentary that tells a story about immigration, labor, dreams, and the power of fiction to spark emancipation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/latin-american-latinx-studies\/files\/2026\/09\/Howtocleanahouse_2-1-1.webp\"><img
