Warning: Spoilers
This film's plot revolves around Christine, a fashion designer who of some unexplained reason has become ill and suffer from hallucinations. She lives in a big house together with her husband and daughter. To make life easier for the family they have decided to recruit a maid. The maid is called Diana and comes directly from the Philippines. She is very kind and very commited to doing a good job. The family is impressed to begin with. However, after a while she starts to act a bit strange and she is getting a little pushy. Diana also says that she can help to cure Christine's illness and they give it a go. Christine is, however, not being cured but it's rather the opposite that occurs, her hallucinations are getting worse. Who is this Diana really, someone she met in the past? Is Christine's illness a result of a feeling of guilt? I think the film is well made with great acting by all the actors, and it ends with a good twist. The film also shows the hypocrisy in the fashion industry where diversity is embraced, but at the same time people in poor countries are being ruthlessly exploited.
