Get ready to meet Guadalupe Manent, the cutest child performer since Little Miss Sunshine!
Gabriel (Diego Peretti) enjoys joint custody of his eight-year-old daughter, Sofia (Manent), with her mother, from whom he has been separated for four years. Gabriel’s sole focus in life has become Sofia, and his friends are getting concerned that he’s thrown in the towel too soon with regards to his romantic life. They arrange for Gabriel a blind date with an attractive single woman in his age range. In a hilarious early sequence, Gabriel goes on the date but proves unable to come up any topic of conversation other than Sofia, which is just about the most anti-romantic thing a fortysomething bachelor can do.
Then Gabriel meets the alluringly fiery Vicky (Maribel Verdú), who has one rigorously enforced rule in life: NO KIDS. She doesn’t have them, she doesn’t want them, and she won’t get involved with anyone who does. Vicky is the first woman who has stirred Gabriel’s libido in many years, so he doesn’t mention Sofia’s existence. How long can he possibly keep up the ruse? Gabriel is hurtling himself into a humiliating disaster—but it turns out his clever little Sofia’s got a few angles of her own to play. – Jaie Laplante
