Synopsis

Isa is a caustic yet generous thief unable to adapt to life outside prison, and her friends. Dolores, a blond gypsy who killed her husband; Rosa, a tender fragile prostitute; Ajo, in love with Pilar, who lives her life to unbearable limits; Luisa, a naive Colombian surprised by an environment she doesn’t understand. The arrival of Mar, a prison warden who doesn’t adjust to the rules of the institution, embarks the women on a journey toward freedom. With the help of Adela, the prison director, they create Módulo 4, the theatre group that will provide them with the energy they need to cope with life’s hard knocks.
