Lecciones para un Beso
Directed by: Juan Pablo Bustamante · Produced by: Talleres Uchawi
Synopsis
The first romantic comedy for men. Alejandro, a teenager from Bogotá, is forced to move to Cartagena when his mother opens a restaurant there. He hates the city so much he hasn't unpacked since arriving. But there he falls head over heels for María, a dazzling fifteen-year-old, and vows to do whatever it takes to kiss her.
With no experience in love, he asks three of the restaurant's regulars — a romantic, a liar and a materialist — for help. They not only agree: they place a bet on which of them will coach him best to his first kiss.
