Synopsis

1965: When constitutional revolutionaries stage a government coup in Santo Domingo and take over a cabaret as a base of operations, the daily life of a group of prostitutes who worked there changes forever. While the owner of the cabaret and her pupils are still adapting in different ways to this situation, the American troops invade the country and occupy the building. Now the girls will have to wage their own private battles, a dilemma on a different scale: lie in bed with the enemy or protect their dignity at all costs.
