A 30-year-old woman, troubled by her past and coping with a dysfunctional relationship with her father, seeks sexual and emotional fulfillment through a series of failed relationships. Her life changes however, when she befriends and convinces an unhappy teenage girl to run away and live with her, under the guise of a confidante who wants to help. Although the arrangement initially works, it soon becomes clear that for the young girl to stay and continue satisfying her needs, the older woman will have to employ immoral tactics. Manipulation, denial and co-dependency fuel what ultimately becomes a fractured dynamic that can only sustain itself for so long. A Worthy Companion is a psychological drama about a troubled woman who seeks for true love in an unusual way. Every element in this film is so elaborate that it is hard to believe it is Jason and Carlos Sanchez’s first film ever.
