Next to the producers, scriptwriters, directors, actors and cinematographers, is another group of people who are also responsible for the magic of movies. They are the men and women who work behind cameras: the technicians, always ready, preparing the next scene; they are the ones who appear in the final credits, which are generally ignored by the audiences. This documentary is their story: their voice, their memories, their experiences, anecdotes of a lifetime in film.

In Mexico City, two sisters live radically different lives: Maria, who—along with her supportive group of fellow sex workers—must deal with unscrupulous, abusive clients and her exploitative pimp, Rudy, and Elena, a society woman trapped in a marriage of convenience, who falls prey to Rudy’s fortune-seeking seduction.
