Our take
The second feature from Mexican director Elisa Miller is a sensitive drama about jealousy, unrequited love, and the shattered illusions of modern relationships. Skilfully observing human behavior from a woman’s point of view, The Pleasure Is Mine is a faithful portrait of an off-kilter generation.
