The Yonkers Film Festival 2022 In Review
A summary of the films featured in this annual event taking place in Westchester.

Would you like to take a peek? At the lives of your neighbors... Nowadays, many people don't interact with their neighbors and have no idea what they're up to in their daily lives. However, if you try to sneak a look out of curiosity, you might end up being reported to the police and suddenly find yourself treated like a criminal. Don’t panic. There's a legal way to peek into others' lives: become a housekeeper. However, it’s quite difficult for men to become housekeepers. So, let’s satisfy that urge through a movie! In this film, the housekeeper doesn’t just take a peek; the beautiful lady uses all sorts of methods, her body included, to solve household problems in one go! "If I had a housekeeper like this, I’d want to hire her too..." is the feeling this film evokes. Starring Yoshimoto Miyabi, the bold lesbian scenes are a must-see.
