Clean Houses

A fiercely intelligent and darkly funny exploration of class, guilt, and the invisible labour that keeps our lives running smoothly .
Morally compelled to justify her privilege, she searches for a more 'respectable' and creative job - one just as precarious as those of her girls. However, in a twist of irony, she finds herself secretly enjoying the cleaning jobs she takes on the side - and excelling at them .

Told with razor-sharp wit and an unfiltered, hypnotic voice, Clean Houses follows Sol. She is a progressive young woman obsessed with cleanliness who, upon becoming pregnant, hires two housekeepers to help her at home. Although having cleaners should, in theory, make Sol's life easier, it instead becomes a source of inner turmoil: she needs them, yet she wishes they didn't exist. Morally compelled to justify her privilege, she searches for a more 'respectable' and creative job - one just as precarious as those of her girls. However, in a twist of irony, she finds herself secretly enjoying the cleaning jobs she takes on the side - and excelling at them .

A brilliantly outrageous take on the contradictions of modern feminism, class awareness and the social choreography of domestic labour.
