In the Barba Azul Cabaret in Mexico City, the women dance and drink with the men who can afford it. In the little restroom upstairs, Mami looks after them at the start and end of their shifts. As long as Mami gets her tip, she looks after the bags, makes sure theres enough toilet paper, and is always ready for a comforting or supportive heart-to-heart. Shes quick to deliver one of her idiosyncratic maxims, such as, Men are only good for two things: for nothing, and for money. This intimate documentary is largely set within the four walls of Mamis domain. Among the girls and women putting on their makeup in front of the mirrors, we principally follow the newest dancer, Priscilla. She started dancing at the cabaret so she can afford to pay the hospital bills for her 22-year-old son, who has cancer. For her, and many of the other women, Mamis room is a safe haven remaining in a nocturnal world thats being transformed.  International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam

En el cabaret Barba Azul en la Ciudad de México, las mujeres bailan y beben con los hombres que pueden pagar. En el pequeño baño de arriba La mami atiende a las chicas al comienzo y al final de sus turnos. Siempre y cuando Mami reciba su propina, cuida de sus bolsos, se asegura de que haya suficiente papel higiénico y está lista para brindarles consejos honestos y apoyo. La Mami no tarda en proferir alguna de sus máximas idiosincráticas, como: "Los hombres solo sirven para dos cosas: para nada y para sacarles el dinero". Este íntimo documental se enmarca en gran medida dentro de las cuatro paredes del dominio de La mami. Entre las niñas y mujeres que se maquillan frente a los espejos, seguimos principalmente a la bailadora más nueva, Priscilla, quien comenzó a bailar en el cabaret para poder pagar las facturas del hospital de su hijo de 22 años que tiene cáncer. Para ella y para muchas de las otras mujeres, el cuarto de La mami es un refugio seguro dentro de un mundo nocturno en plena transformación.  Festival Internacional de Cine Documental de Ámsterdam
