Señoritas
1h 26m
Directed by Lina Rodriguez • 2013 • Canda, Colombia
Starring María Serrano, Clara Monroy, Angela Katherine Laverde
Lina Rodriguez’s feature debut is a subtle, deeply intimate examination of the way one young woman navigates the daunting terrain of sex, desire, and identity. Alejandra (María Serrano) is a free spirit who spends most nights out drinking and dancing in Bogotá with her close but complicated circle of friends. In these relationships and in her sexual experiences with various men, Alejandra expresses her playful independence and passion without consequence. But during a trip outside of the city, a seemingly innocuous game reveals that something has shifted in Alejandra, and that she remains on the brink of a greater spiritual and sexual consciousness.
