A film about a mother house run by nuns somewhere in Buenos Aires. It is mostly single mothers from the lower classes who end up here, for both social and financial reasons. Men do not appear in the film. It is only talked about, fantasized, as if some have not yet learned their lesson. Because from the environment where they come, you will find few responsible men.

Luciano is one of those who has little interest in nun life. If she were not a mother, she would be on the dance floor every day and life would be one big party every day. However, the lure to the outside turned out to be too great and she left the center. She leaves her daughter behind and is taken care of by sister Paola.

No idea if sister is 100% in her right place, she has that in common with the foul-mouthed Luciano. The film ripples on a little too quietly without major remarkable things. Here and there I missed some panache, but the film was certainly not bad.
