As a hotel housekeeper, Sophia learns about the lives of her guests through the things they leave behind. However, when she develops a crush on a charming hotel patron on a long-term business trip, the lines between personal and professional become blurred.

This short film packs a punch. Shows a crush, disillusionment, feelings of being enticed then betrayed, conflicting emotions in 11 minutes. Now that's skill and talent.

That housekeeper really got very emotionally attached to a person she didn’t know from a can of paint. I guess it goes to show how far an innocent compliment can get you in life. 😉

You see someone and your first impression is infatuation. This video shows the sometimes brutal reality that first impressions create a false reality. An excellent and thought provoking video. Well done.

Great short. She was charmed by him and his subtly flirty ways, til she found out he was married. She was disappointed but the wife turned out to be a kind and loving woman. So when MC realized he was having an affair despite the wife being seemingly perfect, she had nothing but disdain for him. Might have reminded her of her ex.

A housekeeper that wanders around, snooping, getting emotionally attached... without cleaning anything... not even bringing in her trolley...
BEWARE 😂😂

[MsAngelaSunshine]

Perfect story line. A housekeeper gets a view of a person's life, puzzle piece after puzzle piece. Especially someone in extended stay.

The housekeeper was incredibly beautiful but also incredibly crazy. That is why I loved this. Her facial expressions were awesome. Great camera work and use of lighting. I hope to one day be able to make films of this quality.

A powerful short film depicting typical human reaction when he/she initially believes “THE ONE” has finally arrived.
EXCELLENT! 🎭

Been doing this kind of work most of my life, the things I accidentally found out about people was unreal. I had a house cleaning business. Great flick

I have done custodial work before. I very much related to Kate B's character. I absolutely LOVE the understated power that this woman (The Maid) has... most people pay no attention to, or even take "the help" seriously... it's a kind of subtle disrespect based on an assumption about you as a person based on the fact that you clean up after strangers... this story is really well told, Thank You.

Well, I was expecting someone to get killed. But in real life, many people get away with cheating, so, it was suitable.
Nice short film!

That was really great ! Better than most Netflix movies. The color gradient, the light, the audio, the music, the editing, the camera movement, the actors, it was all perfect ! I would watch a 2-hour version of this.

Rule number 1 : no emotionnal involvement at work.

Like layers of the onion, we think we know someone or some circumstance, but it takes time to grasp the people or the circumstances around us. The beginnings, when we first meet someone, or go into a new situation, are our own fantasy, but then with increasing knowledge we become more informed. The maid increased her knowledge-as she opened the door to the room each time, just like each day brings us new awareness of our circumstances. She made a decision at the end, but was it the right one? Her action created a ripple effect on the lives of the couple, and her. If she had gotten to know him and the couple better would she have made the same decision? Thanks for a really creative and wonderful short film!

I kept waiting for someone to end up dead but it was still a good film:)

[dandeliondreamer]

I was terrified he was going to kill her any moment because of the thriller description, well crafted film, nice surprise ending 👏

[JorgeContreras-ooih]

I remember my housekeeping years & i did learn quite a lot about human nature 😜

[feefee]

The housekeeper is so pretty love her dimples in her cheeks😍😍😍😍😍😍

[InnannasRainbow]

Come on! I would have loved to see his wifes' reaction.

An endearing mood throughout with the timing, camerawork and music. Intriguing plot, which although is simple, it is unpredictable and thought provoking. I feel the phrase “less is more” works well here.
