    • Synopsis
    • Axelle, Dominique and Conso share a secret. They lead a double life. Every morning they meet up in their public-housing parking lot to commute to work together on the other side of the border. There, in a brothel, they become Athena, Circe and Hera. Ladies of pleasure, everyday heroes, each woman fights for her family and to keep her dignity. When one of the women’s lives is in danger, they must join forces to overcome adversity.
