Synopsis by Mark Deming

A newly single man negotiates the tricky world of dating and internet friendship in the 21st century in this romantic comedy from Chile. Javier (Ariel Levy) is a twenty-something hipster who works in advertising, and for two years was in a seemingly happy relationship with Sofia (Lucy Cominetti). But Javier decided he was growing tired of Sofia and broke up with her; it didn't take long for him to realize that was a mistake, but he's not about to admit it. Since Javier and Sofia are frequent visitors to the same social networking sites and can hardly avoid one another in cyberspace, the two often squabble on line while their friends compare notes on their views of the relationship (most observers decide Javier is being childish). Meanwhile, Javier throws himself back into the dating scene, often with near-disastrous results, while his longtime friend Angela (Andrea Velasco) offers him advice that he usually doesn't have the sense to follow. Fuck My Life (aka Que pena tu vida) received its North American premiere at the 2011 South by Southwest Film Festival.
