A young newlywed faces temptation at every turn in this romantic comedy from first-time director Rene Bueno. 7 Mujeres, 1 Homosexual y Carlos focuses on the travails of the title character, whose recent marriage is suddenly thrust into question when he starts a new job. There, he has to fend off the advances of flirty secretaries, resist peer pressure from his unfaithful boss, and even deal with an interoffice same-sex crush. After playing several Latin-American film festivals, 7 Mujeres was released direct-to-video in 2005. ~ Michael Hastings, All Movie Guide
Mexican filmmaker Alfonso Priego directs the romantic drama The Truce, the second filmed adaptation of the novel by Mario Benedetti.

Just when he's thinking about retiring, he meets the conventionally attractive young secretary Laura (Adriana Fonseca). He falls in love with her and she convinces him that life is worth living. Only then is he able to connect with his college student daughter (Maité Embil), sleazy older son (Arath de la Torre), and gay younger son (Rodrigo Vidal). The Truce was shown at the 2003 Seattle Film Festival. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, All Movie Guide
