Though her [appearance] would [suggest] 
poverty, 
Irina always has a [sizable] wad of [cash] in her pocket 

and lives in a large apartment across the street from the loudly dysfunctional Adacher family. Gradually, the mousy cleaning woman works her way into 

the family home, befriending the parents (Claudia Gerini and Pierfrancesco Favino) and becoming a trusted confidante (知己女友) to their daughter Thea (Clara Dossena). 

As her relationship with the family [deepens], 

her motivations for getting so close become frighteningly clear.
