Why did the professor got startled when he saw baby's feet i wanted some more recordings of isa at the end to be played but it ended abruptly. The movie was good but it lacked some details especially at the ending .. i needed more explanation about the baby i wonder if the baby was professor's? And he realized it by looking at her feet and may that's why isa wanted to talk to him so eagerly when accidentally his laptop got broken down .. where would the money go?? The couple got the baby and what about the money they owed to Isabel? There was no mention about it at the end either why so abrupt ending.

No pun intended - there have been movies with similar themes of course. A while ago I watched a movie where it was about a boss wanting the woman that worked for her to carry a child for her. Since it is the movies you kind of know that there will be some issues - one way or the other. Without conflict what would this even be? Why bother watching it in the first place right? So there has to be drama and drama is here for your ... well I wouldn't say enjoyment, but you get the gist.
Good acting and the main actress - well it seemed like I knew her and lo and behold she was in a tv show I watched. She was not shy about her body in that show and she isn't here either. So you can't be squeamish when it comes to nudity ... other than that, the movie has highs and some lows ... but suspense throughout.

Where do I start? Simply amazing and unforgettable! I enjoyed watching the characters develop as I fell in love with each of them. Also I felt sorry for them at different times and understood their choices and decisions. Not really knowing what was going to happen next or where this story was going. This is an excellent tale of human beings, each trying to live their very best lives the way they know how or the way that they can due to limitations. All along the way to the tailspin in the end. I was wondering how it would all end and wishing it could have a happy ending. I guess it does for some of them. I found myself thinking about the complicated characters the next day and I had to watch it again. It is easily now one of my favorite movies. Thank you to all involved in making this gem. 🙏🏽

This is a story that keeps you intrigued from the beginning to end. Curiosity is in our nature, we want to know the whys, the where's and the hows. All the complexities of life in different individual characters provide a background of different sensations and thicken the plot. It makes you judge and then your judgements dissolve once you see the other side of the coin. A small window opens in each scene allowing us to take a peak into the turmoil of the soul. This is not a story of one strong character. It is a story of many characters in their attempt to be strong.
I loved being confused in this movie. I loved getting lost in intentions. I loved not understanding why this woman was so eager to get what she wanted. And then I loved understanding her and seeing the decisions she had to make for the sake of others.

There was an outstanding performance by the actress playing the lead of Isabel, a young mom so desperate to get back to her son that she decides to become a surrogate in order to earn the money.
Unfortunately for Isabel, the two prospective parents, Sara and Joaquin, as well as the professor named Bruno with whom she is having an affair, were some of the most insensitive characters imaginable.
Throughout the film, there is the feeling of a soap opera in which Isabel finds herself at the center. There is virtually no warmth from the two parents and grave concerns about whether they could even pay her because of their financial problems. As for the professor, Bruno was callous to the degree that he would not even listen to her when she wanted him to know that he was the child's father.
The film's ending was so full of pathos that it was difficult to discern any order in this world without the sparkling presence of Isabel.

Really enjoyed this. It's an interesting story with a real twist right at the end. Direction, acting and script very good and definitely worth a 7.
I'd not seen any of the cast before so will look out for them in future productions.

Liked the movie just rated a 9 because the ending not sure how I feel about that. Tired of watching same scenario movies this was pretty good. Hoping to see more movies like this.

AS we eventually discover the story centers on Isa (Paulina Gaitan). Her husband (Marco Pérez ) has custody of her son. She is a surrogate mother Joaquin (Flavio Medina) and Sara (Yuriria del Valle). While pregnant with their child, she suddenly throws herself at a man she claims was her instructor, but he has no recollection of her. They hook up. He (Roberto Sosa ) is a college professor who is also a novelist. He is fascinated by the story and wants to know more for his novel, not wanting to be a one hit wonder.
On the surface, this appears as a dull drama with conversations that are cut off. However the ending has a wicked wicked twist and there are all kind of clues along the way. Loved it solely for the twist.
Guide: F-word, sex, nudity (Paulina Gaitan)

The main idea was to show complex social and personal problems. Acting was good, but the story missed consistency and was predictable.
I felt that something is missing, it incomplete. It didn't reach out me at the end. Probably because it was predictable.

Came across this on Amazon Prime today. Not sure what to expect as didn't see a trailer, so I dug in and was gripped from the start. Mainly due to the very good and natural acting of the main female star, Isabel and also the captivating and odd professor. This movie has a lot of emotional undercurrents, I won't give anything away but it's a slow, steady, excellent script and the direction it's heading in.... Lorrrrd the direction it's heading in is unexpected to say the least. I could not predict that ending and what a pleasant surprise it was. 10/10 as this was low budget but a real dramatic masterpiece!
