Princesas
A Spanish film about the life of Madrid’s prostitutes – or rather two of them: Caye, a local girl and Zulema an illegal immigrant from the Dominican Republic. 
The film is all good intentions and attempts to portray their lives but somehow it rings rather false or cliched on several occasions. What gives the film life are the two very good performances by Candela Pena 
and Micaela Nervarez in the main roles and by Manu Chao’s music. While it is watchable, I felt there was something very predictable and almost hackneyed about the script and that this prevented it from really lifting off.
