Evelyn

Teenager Evelyn certainly wouldn't mind staying at home in rural Peru. Her family aren't particularly wealthy but they get by and, initially, it is her mum who is more won over by the glamorous woman from an agency who already 'helped' her cousin Margarita move to Spain. Under pressure from her family and reassured by phone calls from Margarita, Evelyn decides to take a chance... and quickly descends into a nightmare. On arrival in Spain, she finds not the bright new future she had hoped but the confusing world of a brothel, with Margarita, beaten down by months in the place and so fearful for her family back home that she coerced Evelyn into joining her rather than tell the truth. The prospects for Evelyn are bleak, with rape and drugs high on the agenda as brothel owner Ricardo tries to break her spirit, to extract the money he says she owes him.
