Overview
- Netflix began streaming Deseo on July 17, 2026, after a brief theatrical run in Mexico and Spain, making the film available across Latin America, the U.S. and Spain.
- Directed by Teresa Simone in her feature debut, the film stars Ludwika Paleta, Óscar Casas and José María Yazpik and runs about 98–99 minutes.
- Deseo centers on a married lawyer who becomes involved with her child’s swim coach, a setup that the press describes as a sensual psychological thriller rather than straightforward erotica.
- Early coverage and reviews praise Paleta’s performance plus the film’s visual style and cinematography, while critics are divided over the screenplay and narrative twists.
- The title quickly drew viewer attention on Netflix — reaching top positions in some markets — and is being framed by outlets as part of Netflix’s broader push into Mexican and Spain co‑productions; the film was shot in Mexico City.
