Javier Bardem stars as Baldomero, a charismatic factory boss whose ruthless drive for profit masks a talent for manipulation and charm. The Good Boss follows his attempts to keep a faltering company and a golden image intact amid petty crises, bribes, and shifting loyalties. A sharp, satirical drama with dark humor, it surveys power, ambition, and moral compromise in a modern workplace, where every decision reverberates through workers’ lives and corporate reputation. Its sharp social critique stays with you long after the credits.
