Wikipedia article
'7 mujeres, 1 homosexual y Carlos' ("7 women, 1 homosexual and Carlos") is a Mexican comedy movie filmed in Tijuana and released in 2004.
The film was written and directed by Ren Bueno, a young filmmaker from Ensenada, Baja California. Bueno received the financial support of Marissa Gmez a journalist and promoter of Mexican cinema to portray a story typical of the life of middle-class young people in contemporary Tijuana.
The film stars Mauricio Ochmann in the role of Carlos and Adriana Fonseca as his girlfriend. This film was released on 1 June 2004 and in three days its box-office output was more than three million pesos (roughly 285,000 dollars). The film was also presented in several Latin American film festivals as well as the San Diego Latino Film Festival, and the Madrid Comedy Film Festival of Madrid in 2005.
Plot
Carlos (Mauricio Ochmann) is a 21-year-old who finds himself married to Camila (Adriana Fonseca), his 18-year-old girlfriend after dating for five years and discovering that she is pregnant.
Carlos decides to pursue married life since, he thinks, people marry every day and thus everything will work out fine. He gets a job to support his new family but does not realize the seriousness of his decisions until he discovers that his new boss (Luis Felipe Tovar) is having an affair with his secretary, Lucy (Anas Beln), and Monica, his attractive new co-worker (Ninel Conde) is attempting to seduce him.
To complicate things even more, Camila's father does not approve of the decision that she and Carlos made. Carlos struggles to defend himself against his father-in-law and from peer-pressure to be unfaithful to his wife. The title of the film derives from Carlos' co-workers theory that -in Mexico's demographics- every man is "entitled" to seven women and a homosexual.
