Sexual Romantic Comedy with a Difference

Freedom, desire, romance and revenge are the themes that are explored in the acclaimed Argentinean comedy drama PLAN B from Marco Berger, available to buy on DVD on 13th September 2010, RRP £15.99.

Bruno is dumped by his girlfriend. Behind a calm, indifferent exterior, his mind plots a cold, sweet vengeance.

She, a modern girl, continues to see him once in a while, but has another boyfriend – Pablo. Bruno becomes Pablo’s friend, with the idea of eroding the couple, perhaps introducing him to another woman. 

Along the way, the possibility of a Plan B arises. It may be a more effective one – and it is also one which will put his own sexuality into question, taking him into the secret, unexplored places of his own heart.
