This is a really good movie. Really sad and depressing. We watched it during spanish class and a lot of kids were crying, including me. i would recomend doing some rearcherch on Rafael Trujillo. It is about a group of sisters living in the dictatorship of Rafael Trujillo and they rebel. Let me remind you, this is a really violent and relistic movie.
