Based on the novel El socio, by Chilean writer Jenaro Prieto, first published in 1928, and on the movie L'associé (1979), which was based on that novel.
A black woman starting her own investment bank is having trouble attracting clients. She then invents a male partner to give her business more credibility.
Interesting comedy which however has a few plausibility problems, for example I dare say it is not as easy as that to make up a person nowadays, I am pretty sure there is a unified database of U.S.A. citizens, etc. Anyway, once a few concessions are made, the film is fairly enjoyable.
