Kept and Dreamless (Spanish: Las Mantenidas Sin Sueños, lit. 'The Kept Without Dreams') is a 2005 Argentinian drama film directed by Vera Fogwill and Martín De Salvo. Starring Fogwill and Lucía Snieg, the film focuses on the struggles of Eugenia, a 10-year-old precocious child, and the bond with her cocaine-addicted, unemployed mother Florencia, as she tries to find a job for her when they discover Florencia is pregnant. The film also stars Mirta Busnelli, Mía Maestro, Edda Díaz, Elsa Berenguer[1] and Gastón Pauls. Shown at the American Film Institute's Silver Theatre in Silver Spring, Maryland, on September 24, 2005, the film explores mother-daughter relationships in a reminiscent way of the work of Spanish director Pedro Sanchez.[according to whom?]
