However, it didn’t take long for Henry Copper to be contacted by a publicist, Jen Spencer (Lucy Punch), who reported that The Sensible Heart had failed in the US but was selling well in Mexico. So he was flown there to visit Mexico City and Palenque.
The Mexican version of The Sensible Heart is translated by Maria Rodriguez (Veronica Echegui). Arriving there, Henry is picked up by Maria with his grandfather, Max (Fernando Bece), and his son, Diego (Ruy Gaytan).

Meanwhile, Henry is a bit vague. We know his background from a number of oral confessions. The rest is the journey of two characters looking for love in an ever-forward movement.
