Alanis

Anahí BERNERI 2017 Argentina Fiction color 82min Spanish DCP
Alanis is a sex worker. Together with her one-year-old son, she shares a so-called “private apartment” in downtown Buenos Aires with an older woman, Gisela, where the two live and work. One day, municipal inspectors posing as clients shut down their business and charge Gisela with human trafficking. With nowhere else to turn, Alanis shows up at her aunt’s place, a clothing store in Plaza Miserere, a violent inner-city neighborhood. Finding temporary refuge, Alanis must now help her friend Gisela, and somehow recover her own dignity. The streets have their own rules and Alanis will have to fight to make room for herself.
