Ludwika Paleta and Juanpa Zurita become a couple in 'Do You Want to Be My Girlfriend?', a love story that defies ages

Ludwika Paleta and Juanpa Zurita star as a romantic couple in the film 'Do You Want to Be My Girlfriend?', which explores societal norms about age differences in relationships.

In the upcoming film 'Do You Want to Be My Girlfriend?', Ludwika Paleta and Juanpa Zurita reunite on screen as a couple facing societal scrutiny due to their age difference. The film is a sequel to 'Do You Want to Be My Son?' and is directed by Ihtzi Hurtado, set to premiere in theaters on February 12. It tells the story of Lucía, a mature woman, and Javi, a young writer, as they navigate the challenges of their romance amidst criticism.

Ludwika Paleta expressed her interest in the film’s subject matter, noting that while themes of older men dating younger women are frequently explored, there is a distinct lack of narratives featuring older women in relationships with younger men. This inconsistency in representation is one of the driving factors behind her involvement in the project, as she emphasizes the need for stories that reflect the realities of empowered women today.

The film seeks to challenge conventional norms regarding romance and age, framing the relationship between Lucía and Javi not just as a love story, but as a commentary on societal stereotypes. By focusing on the female perspective and the empowerment of women, the project aims to initiate discussions about acceptance and shift perceptions surrounding age-gap relationships in modern society.
