Why watch this film?
This is yet another remake of the Italian production 'Perfectos Desconocidos', now through the Mexican vision. The direction is by Manolo Caro ('A Casa das Flores'), who imprints his characteristics, although maintaining the original plot - about a group of friends who dive into each other's secrets through their cell phones, opening a Pandora's Box. The result is a funny comedy, like the original, only with a touch of Mexican dramaturgy.

From the same director
The House of Flowers: The Movie
Continuing the story of the Mexican series of the same name, 'The House of Flowers: The Movie' brings back the Del Mora siblings with an attempt to recover an old treasure. Despite not being very well known in Brazil, it is an internationally successful and spirited series with a language that mixes mystery and comedy. The movie follows the same acidic humor of the super fun series. Both are available in the Netflix catalog and are great recommendations for those looking for a renewed style of humor.
Love of My Loves
This is Manolo Caro's second work as a director (‘No sé si cortarme las venas o dejármelas largas’). ‘Amor de mis amores’ is a romantic comedy that, for better or worse, has the characteristics that marked the director's previous movie and which would eventually define his later filmography, from urban landscapes and love entanglements— without falling into melodrama—to witty dialogue and privileged characters that are not really deep. However, it is a movie that, while it does not innovate, is much better achieved than typical proposals of its genre.
Comedy
Psychic by Accident
In the plot, at the age of 40, architect Ulisses (Otaviano Costa), skeptical of his career and unsure of his talents, visits a “vocational coach” who promises to find people’s true vocation. After drinking suspicious tea offered by the professional in her crazy ritual, Ulisses blacks out and has his belongings stolen. But mysteriously he leaves there with a strange power: discovering, with just a touch, people's true vocation.

A triptych fable following a man without choice who tries to take control of his own life; a policeman who is alarmed that his wife who was missing-at-sea has returned and seems a different person; and a woman determined to find a specific someone with a special ability, who is destined to become a prodigious spiritual leader.
