Synopsis
Henry, a stuffy, formal writer, realizes that his latest book has been a failure. However, his publicist tells him that, almost inexplicably, it is proving to be a success in Mexico. So he decides to cross the Atlantic to talk about his latest work. There he meets Maria, his translator. He soon realizes that the reason for the success of his book is that Maria had rewritten it as an erotic novel. Together they must tour the country to promote the book and soon sparks start to fly between them.
