Synopsis by Mark Deming
In this youth-centric comedy drama, Rosalía (Iran Castillo), Susana (Mariana Avila), Lulu (Francesça Guillen), and Laura (Sherlyn González) are four teenage girls who find themselves walking a tightrope between the impulsive desires of a child and the responsibilities of young women. As they struggle with family conflicts and experience the new thrills of love and romance with their boyfriends, the young ladies have to negotiate the tricky path between sexual attraction and the responsibilities that come with adult relationships. La Segunda Noche was a major box-office success in Mexico, where it became one of the biggest homegrown hits in the nation's history.
