A group of elderly and partially still working female sex workers in Mexico City ranging in age from sixty to ninety-five find refuge in a very special home for elderly people. Casa Xochiquetzal – named after the Aztec goddess of beauty and love – was established by one of their former colleagues, and here they struggle to stay together despite the pressures that develop from within and outside the home.
