Princesas
This is the story of two women, of two prostitutes, of two princesses. One of them is called Cye, she is almost thirty years old, with a fringe from the hairdressers and debatably attractive. Zulema is an exiled princess, sweet but dark, living daily the forced exile of despair. When they meet they are in different places, almost at odds: there are many girls who feel threatened by the arrival of the immigrant prostitutes. Caye and Zulema do not take long to realise that, although at some distance, they both walk the same tightrope. From their complicity this story is born.
