Why watch this film?
Target audience for director Sergio Zurita's "A Family Portrait" are fans of classic Mexican romantic comedies. This is why it's not surprising he recruited the writers from "We Are The Nobles" (one of the most successful Mexican films in history) to write the screenplay. Together with Zurita, the directing duo created an incredibly entertaining comedy that captures the exaggerated jokes characteristic of the genre in Mexico through a family-oriented plot. It meets expectations of seeing drama at its best with the story of an older man doing everything he can to rekindle passion in his marriage.

How to Deal with a Heartbreak
Sequel to the successful Peruvian romantic comedy "Soltera codiciada" from 2018. In How to Deal with a Heartbreak, we pick up the story of María Fe (Gisela Ponce de León), who seems to be going through her best moment... until the pandemic arrives. Struggling with creative block but committed to writing a second book for a publisher, she faces an existential crisis in the worst possible way. This sequel is interesting because it takes into consideration how the pandemic affected an entire generation both professionally and economically. However, the narrative isn't as effective as the first one, as it tends to get lost in unnecessary detours and twists. You'll enjoy it if you liked the original.
