Tenso (Adrian Suar) is an ordinary guy who is married to Tana (Valeria Bertuccelli), a woman who is both beautiful and keenly intelligent. Unfortunately, Tana is also extremely moody and hasn't been able to hold down a job for some time, and every evening Tenso comes home from work to hear his spouse complain about the dead end that is her life and Tenso's annoying pals. Tenso has reached the end of his patience with his marriage, but he doesn't have the nerve to ask Tana for a divorce, so he tries to lure her into infidelity without her realizing it. Tenso persuades a renowned local ladykiller nicknamed the Crow (Gabriel Goity) to seduce Tana, but that proves to be a more difficult assignment than anyone imagined. Meanwhile, Tana finally finds a useful outlet for her profound cynicism when she becomes a featured commentator on a radio show called "Mornings Aren't For Me." Un Novio Para Mi Mujer (aka A Boyfriend For My Wife) received its North American premiere at the 2008 AFI Los Angeles Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
