Nails

Created by Araceli Álvarez de Sotomayor

Nails tells the story of four women from different backgrounds and of different ages who meet in a nail salon. Their repeated encounters will spark a unique friendship, turning them into partners in crime, influencing the most important decision of their lives: to reject who they have become and discover the women they want to be. Lina, Vanessa, Irene and Marilís are all subjected to chronic stress in their eagerness to fulfil all the requirements demanded to be ‘perfect’ in today’s world. They represent today's femininity. But what has happened to their ability to choose? Are they victims of what is expected of them? These questions will lead the protagonists to rebel against their reality causing an emotional tsunami in their families. They will be shaken by a decision that will turn their lives upside down, leading to the spontaneous creation of ‘The Free Women's Club’, a safe space and sisterhood intended to help other women solve their problems.
