    • Night after night, La Mami, in charge of the women's restroom at the mythical Cabaret Barba Azul in DF, offers care to the women who work there dancing. This restroom is the space inside the cabaret in which these women feel unleashed. This story begins when Priscilla, the new dancer, arrives to this place. She has a sick child and she has to work.
