About to turn 45, Rosa comes to realize that her full life has always been devoted to please others and decides to press the nuclear button, shake things up and grab hold of the reins of her life. But first, she wants to take on a very special commitment: get married to herself. But Rosa will soon discover that her siblings and daughter have their own plans, and that changing her life is going to be anything but easy if it's not in the family script. Getting married, even with herself, is going to be the hardest thing she's ever done.

While the movie is often predictable, it is nevertheless enjoyable, and belongs squarely in the ever-growing genre of movies about middle-aged women making a major life transformation.

A film without excesses, there is simplicity and a very measured script. [Full review in Spanish]
