Obedient

Rodrigo, a divorced father struggling with anxiety, faces the final interview for a high-stakes corporate position. On the very day he drops off his young daughter Clara at school, he receives a devastating call: she has suffered a serious accident.

Just as he is about to rush to her side, Rodrigo learns that the emergency is part of a psychological test designed to measure his ability to remain obedient under extreme pressure.

Trapped inside his own apartment, monitored and manipulated, Rodrigo must choose between following the orders of a system that promises him success—or listening to his most basic instinct as a father.
OBEDIENT is a claustrophobic thriller about control, anxiety, and the cost of learning to ignore what truly matters.
