Synopsis
A journey through the life of a seemingly ordinary Mexican maid, the diminutive Paulina, who was Funari's childhood caretaker during the years her father was stationed in Mexico City. The story twists as the mix of documentary and re-enactment builds up to Paulina's revenge for her rape and imprisonment as mistress of the town boss of her Veracruz hometown.
