What is Bad Influence on Netflix about?

Netflix's Bad Influence narrates the story of Reese, a school-going ballerina dancer who is under threat as she keeps getting hints that she is being stalked. Her father is very rich and wants to ensure that she is always safe; for this, he hires a bodyguard to be with her most of the time. According to an article published on Tudum on May 9, 2025, here's what the film is about.

"Bruce (Arce) is increasingly overprotective of his daughter, a teen ballerina named Reese (Rochera). It’s not wholly without reason: Reese has a stalker whose identity she doesn’t know, and she may be in grave danger. So millionaire Bruce hires the brooding Eros (Olmo) as his child’s bodyguard."

The synopsis also highlights important details about Eros, the person hired to protect Reese and keep a watch on the people who might want to harm her. It mentions:

"Eros, who’s been living in and out of foster care and juvenile detention, is intrigued by his privileged protectee — though he’s on strict orders from Bruce to ensure his relationship with Reese never becomes personal."

It also mentions Reese's changing dynamics with Eros and how it changes from that of disgust to admiration. It says:

"Stubborn Reese, on the other hand, is frustrated about having a bodyguard at all, claiming it’s social suicide at the prestigious private school she attends. As the two are forced to spend time together amid the threats against Reese — including intimidation and bullying by her ex-boyfriend, Raúl (Fraga) — their bond deepens, despite the odds."
