Featured reviews
Saw the movie in the Guadalajara Film Festival. I was awed by the twists and turns the plot offers.
A stubborn patient trying to outsmart the psychologist at every chance she gets. The seemingly steady plot takes brusque change of directions at every chance, until you find yourself deep in thought of the profound meaning of everything that is happening on screen.
When credits appeared, I was still deep in thought trying to get a grip of what was shown on the screen and how it wakes sensible feelings and emotions inside myself.
Very interesting, complex and revealing movie!!
Not often is Mexican cinema immersed in this type of thrillers. Excellent direction, script, and acting. Congratulations to all involved!

It has an interesting plot idea, but the end result ends up being boring and pointless.
The movie is done in a beautiful way. The simple setting and it being black and white keeps one in the uncomfortable feeling which is perfect for this genre.
While the feeling of suspense remains for the whole movie one still has the feeling that one knows exactly how it ends. Yet at the end one still ends up getting a surprise and is satisfied that the movie ended up being not as simple as one expected.
Great acting as well. The two main actresses are fully in their characters and keep us watching by contributing to the psycho thriller with their acting.

Its the worst film I've seen and a shame there isn't a Zero rating. Its awful. People that give it so much stars and words of praise lied about watching all of it or they haven't seen it but think it's a different film called Veronica by Netflix. The film only has two people and most of it was in black and white. The ending made no sense and is not clever. Its just like watching paint dry.
