La comunidad (UK title: Common Wealth) is a 2000 Spanish black comedy film directed by Álex de la Iglesia.

Driven by the ambition and greed of the characters to the point of the degradation of their human condition,[1] the plot concerns the developments in a homeowner community in Madrid upon the finding of 300 million in the apartment of a dead man by real estate agent Julia (Carmen Maura). Maura garnered critical acclaim for her performance and scooped a Silver Shell and a Goya Award for Best Actress.
