In the film, which is an adaptation of the novel Tales of the Town of Widows by James Canon, the 36-year-old actress plays a lady in charge of a Latin American village after it loses all of its men.
After the male occupants are forcibly recruited by a group of guerrilla revolutionaries, the ladies are forced to take on traditional male roles.
This leads to a steamy love scene between Longoria and Castillo, which the film’s director describes as ‘sensual.’
“It was a little difficult as the two girls are both straight so they were very nervous and laughed a lot,” the Daily Mail quoted director, Gabriela Tagliavini, as telling Fox News.
“But I think that just made it even lovelier. [Female audiences] don’t want to watch porn, so it was all very sensual, both are very beautiful women aside from being incredibly funny.
“Eva is more sexy here than in ‘Desperate Housewives’. She was a total trooper and she just went for it, it all looked very real,” she added.
