Six women share a common 'friend': madness. It visits us all, pushes us to decide reality, to make daring decisions and to transform our lives.
Acting
Six powerhouse performances, each woman distinctively unhinged in her own flavor.
Direction
Rodrigo García's patient gaze—he lets madness breathe instead of performing it.
Production
The house itself becomes a seventh character, cloistered and quietly oppressive.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
García continues his decades-long exploration of women's interior lives (Albert Nobbs, Nine Lives), now with an almost entirely Mexican female ensemble rare for international festival cinema.
The title references both 'folie à deux' (shared madness) and theatrical follies—decorative structures without purpose, much like the women's prescribed lives.
