Sex, love, lies, bed-hopping and mistaken identities abound in this pop musical-comedy set in Madrid. The gorgeous Paula breaks up with her boyfriend Pedro in order to continue her affair with Javier. The immature Javier however, is unwilling to break up with his current girlfriend Sonia, or confess to their affair to Pedro, who happens to be his best friend.
The film screened at the Málaga Film Festival in 2002.[4][5] It was theatrically released in Spain on 5 July 2002.[6]
The film was followed three years later by a sequel entitled The 2 Sides of the Bed. Martínez-Lázaro and Serrano return as director and screenwriter while Alterio, Toledo, San Juan, Esteve and de la Rosa all reprise their roles.
In 2004, a musical adaptation of the film was made under the same name; it premiered in Madrid on 16 September.
A French remake entitled Cheating Love (On va s'aimer in French speaking markets) was released in 2006. It was written and directed by Ivan Calbérac and stars Julien Boisselier, Alexandra Lamy, Mélanie Doutey and Gilles Lellouche among others.
