Story
A young Buenos Aires mother finds employment as a sex worker and struggles to live under the same laws that are supposed to protect her.
Summary
In Argentina's capital, Buenos Aires, a resilient young mother takes up sex work to provide for her family. Yet, she finds herself ensnared in a paradoxical web of injustice where the laws meant to safeguard citizens like her instead create barriers and exploitation. Navigating this precarious existence, she battles daily against societal stigma and legal grey areas that exacerbate her plight rather than alleviate it.
