About Alanis 💬

A young Buenos Aires mother finds employment as a sex worker and struggles to live under the same laws that are supposed to protect her...

Maria, nicknamed 'Alanis' from modern rock singer Alanis Morissette.

Alanis (Sofía Gala Castiglione) is a prostitute. Together with her 18 months old son (played by Castiglione's own infant son) named Dante (Dante Della Paolera), she shares with Gisela (Dana Basso), an older woman, a so-called ''private apartment'' in downtown Buenos Aires, where she lives and works. Two municipal inspectors, posing as clients, enter the apartment, and as a condition to avoid closing down the place, they ask for a permit to function as a ''massage parlor'', but they don't have one. Alanis seeks accommodation at her aunt's place. She shows up dressed in her work clothes and tells all sorts of lies in order to hide the shameful truth from her family. From there, Alanis will try to recover her dignity, her belongings, and her friend. She will take care of her son and try to sell what she knows how to do on the streets. But the streets have their own rules, and Alanis will have to fight to make room for herself. Constantly moving, Alanis can't stop to think: Where will I live with my baby? Where will I work? Do I have the freedom to make my own choices?
