Love is like a tequila shot. Strong, hot as fire, covers our hearth, gets in touch with our feelings, makes us see everything beautiful and inspires us to do the impossible and prohibited for the love ones. Sex and Love in Monterrey, Mexico! Part of the new age Mexican cinema, Tequila 5 is surprisingly edgy! Four lonely and love hungry individuals carry out their ordinary lives (yet extraordinary in some ways) in the buzzing Monterrey, Mexico. An entertaining film with an end that will make you think

Tepito is a neighborhood of Mexico City, where the dreams of many destitute people become real. But Tepito is also run by organized crime and corrupt politicians, impunity reigns and justice is non- existent. Here will take place the story of two foolishly proud young men, who were once best childhood friends, and now are blinded by greed and turn against each other. Their intentions are to destroy their families and eventually their own lives.

Recently escaped from reformatory, Reinaldo struggles to get by in the streets of Havana in the late 90s, one of the worst decades for Cuban society. Hopes, disillusionment, rum, good humor and above all hunger, accompany him in his wanderings, until he meets Magda and Yunisleidy, survivors like himself. In one or the other's arms, he will try to escape the material and moral misery surrounding him, living love, passion, tenderness and uninhibited sex to the limit.
