Las Cuarentas
The film presents various aspects of prostitutes' lives in Costa Rica. Several prostitutes and some "protectors" agreed to offer a confession about their lives, how they got there and what they hope for the future. Far from being a moral discourse, the documentary manages to bring us closer, in a human way, to the condition that determines the lives of prostitutes.
