Uncompromising Mexican director Michel Franco reunites with actress Jessica Chastain, whose cold precision powers an erotically charged political drama with a vicious sting in its tail.

Chastain stars as rich philanthropist Jennifer opposite Isaac Hernández, who plays her lover, a young Mexican ballet dancer Fernando who dreams of international recognition and a life in the US. Believing she will support him, he leaves everything behind but his arrival disrupts her carefully curated world.

"In a shocking critique of the lopsided power dynamics between a self-protective philanthropist and the Mexican dancer she sponsors, Chastain tackles a role few stars would have the courage to touch." — Peter Debruge, Variety
