Why watch this film?
A teenage girl living in a juvenile correctional institution gets pregnant. To help her, one of the educators offers her to live secretly with him and his wife, with only one condition in exchange: give up the baby when it is born. These are the foundations of 'The Agreement' (La hija), an intense Spanish thriller that raises moral dilemmas without easy answers and with palpable narrative tension. There are some pacing issues, but if you like movies that confront us with complicated questions, you will surely appreciate it.
