Railroad All-Stars
Valeria, Vilma and Mercy are three members of a group of prostitutes living in Guatemala earning two dollars per ‘service’. They work at La Linea, by the railroad that runs across Guatemala City. These women dream of being treated with dignity and of the ending of the violence they endure. In order to draw attention to their everyday problems, they get together to form a football team, train for weeks and sign up for a local championship from which they are expelled for being prostitutes.
This expulsion generates strong controversy in Guatemala, with support and rejection suddenly transforming their lives. This is their story.
