(2022) Under Her Control/ La Jefa
(In Spanish with English subtitles)
THRILLER/ DRAMA
It opens with a "A Devil Wears Prada" scenario when a young lady, Sofia (Cumelen Sanz) is applying for a job as intern/ secretary for a popular clothing designer, Beatriz (Aitana Sánchez-Gijón). When she lands the job, she prioritizes working for her idol, Beatriz over moving to a different city when her boyfriend, Naco (Alex Pastrana) wants to relocate some place else. Then Sofia finds out she is expecting, telling no one else other than her boss Beatriz particularly not her boyfriend, Naco. Because Beatriz is unable to get prenant herself, she then makes a proposal to Sofia to surrogate the child to her for a price. She agrees but with a heavy financial price. Only then Beatriz would then convince Sofia to seclude herself living in an isolated house to protect the pregnancy with a Vietnamese maid to provide Sofia with everything she needs. And it was at the start of this point, I liked the movie much less. It just became more absurd, dumb and stupid.
