In Welcome to the Family, Cristina, a struggling single mother, finds her daily life turned upside down when her father suddenly dies after mortgaging his house to the mafia. To avoid ending up on the street, she decides to team up with Luciana, her father's wife, a frustrated, alcoholic actress.
Their plan? Hide the body, falsify the will and trick a dangerous criminal. But between an over-inquisitive neighbor, a love-struck policeman and a couple of kids in on the scheme, complications soon pile up, leading to situations as hilarious as they are outrageous.
Welcome to the Family will be available on Netflix from March 12, 2025.
Synopsis: Cristina, a single mother, discovers that her father has left his house to the Mafia as collateral for a debt. When he dies suddenly, she has to act fast to avoid being evicted. With Luciana, her eccentric mother-in-law, they pull off a risky scam: hide the body, falsify the will and fool a dangerous criminal. But with a suspicious neighbor and a police officer in love, their plan could turn into a nightmare.
With a plot mixing crime, family and absurdist humor, Welcome to the Family is in the tradition of delirious black comedies, where every lie leads to a new catastrophe.
Carried by Erika Buenfil (Luciana) and Marimar Vega (Cristina), the series also stars Ana Layevska, Erick Elías and Martín Altomaro, well-known figures in Mexican cinema and telenovelas.
Directors Mark Alazraki and Jorge Macaya orchestrate a mise-en-scène in which plot twists and turns follow one another at a frenetic pace, leaving little respite for characters and viewers alike.
With its wry humor, fast pace and plot full of surprises, Welcome to the Family promises to be an entertaining and offbeat series, ideal for fans of crime comedy with a twist.
