Synopsis

Alejandra is a free spirit who lives with her mother in a comfortable apartment in Bogotá. She spends most nights drinking or dancing with her friends, including her best friend Véronica and her sometime boyfriend Tomás. Alejandra expresses her playful independence in these friendships, as well as in her sexual conquests with various men. Yet Alejandra’s comfort is also where the complexity lies, and gradually the intensity with which she lives comes to a head. Señoritas is a subtle, contemplative and intimate examination of the way one young woman navigates the daunting terrain of sex, desire and identity.
