Cachada. La oportunidad

Five Salvadoran women, street vendors and single mothers, form a theatre company and accept the challenge of putting on a play through which they'll bring their harsh life stories to the stage. What began as an experiment has turned into the only opportunity to transform their lives, but will they be able to face their past and get over their fears, traumas and dark secrets? Filmed over a year and a half, this observational documentary is witness to the rehearsals process of their play, through which they will discover themselves as victims and victimizers, realizing that they have educated their children without overcoming the pain of the past. The cycle of violence is perverse, but the power of theater is stronger.
