Don Juicy

2025 · 18 min

A short, silly, warm-hearted scramble of awkward social climbing and family embarrassment that plays like a breezy comic sketch.

Overview: Jorge and his son Emil were supposed to be guests at his boss's birthday party, but when they unexpectedly have to fill in as waiters, they are dragged into their host's juicy scheme. Now Emil fights the role of the mascot, while Jorge senses an opportunity for career advancement. A story about sweat, (post-)migrant experiences, family and guacamole. ¡Ay Caramba!
How it feels: Absurd, satirical, light and warm. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Family, class, work, identity
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
