In the course of Alaide Foppa's life, she became a precursor of feminism in Mexico. She was an immigrant who, in her own way, tried to break the molds established by her upper-class upbringing. Her sensitivity and intellectual development made her question matters of social injustice, educational and gender inequalities, the importance of socially-committed art forms and the vindication of democracy throughout Latin America. Her tragic end reveals much about the history of Guatemala.

This documentary deals with the stories, achievements and difficulties of women boxers and footballers. Their stories are told from the point of view of their daily lives where sport, family live and relationships intermingle in a complex and often contradictory whole. All these women share the desire to triumph in sports normally considered to be men´s sports. Some of them pursue their dream while working at other jobs such as driving taxis, selling tacos or being lawyers. They are not women victims, trapped in the family or in marriage; for the simple reason that they are still fighting, they have not accepted defeat. This documentary looks at the feminine aspect of these sports and the unfairness that there is.

oñita viene a la Capital Mexicana, con el objeto de mejorar sus condiciones de vida, pero ella se verá obligada a ejercer la Prostitución. Documental que tiene por objeto concientizar a mujeres menores de edad migrantes de comunidades rurales, que se trasladan a la ciudad de México en busca de empleo pero en su intento se ven inmersas en las redes de la prostitución y la delincuencia organizada. El Instituto de las Mujeres del DF realizó éste video sobre el enganchamiento de niñas de 12 y 13 años que son obligadas a prostituirse en zonas como La Merced. Además se busca erradicar la falsa idea de que una mujer puede pararse en una esquina y ejercer la prostitución por su cuenta. "Esto no es cierto, los espacios son también de poder, y los controlan incluso policías a través de madrotas", explicó la autora tras la exposición del video.
