Ladies, welcome to La Encantada.
We wanted to be the
first to welcome you.
- Phone calls are prohibited.
- Other side.
How much do you want to do? The
perfect woman doesn't exist.
THat is why I have
to create her.
She has a very
serious addiction.
Give her only enough
to stay functional.
You declared that you
were never pregnant.
It's a consent to begin
treatment immediately.
This will be our secret.
The political party chose
him as the candidate.
It was supposed to be you.
The girls will care
for you. I promise.
If I can manage to
have a beauty queen
astonish them with her brain
and not with her cleavage...
- Let's go!
- You okay?
- Elena!
- Let's go!
Catí, wait for me!
Catí. Catí.
Estela?
It's Jocelyn.
Can I speak with Catí?
What do you mean she didn't
come home to sleep again?
Can I speak with my mom?
I don't care if she's
sleeping, wake her up!
Jocy? Are you there?
Mom?
How is it that Catí didn't
sleep there last night?
Did you speak with Héctor yet?
Did you tell him that
she hasn't shown up?
Why haven't you called him?
There's no time to waste, Mom!
Go see him as soon
as the sun comes up.
He'll help us.
I'm leaving today.
What part of the rules
did you not understand?
I need to leave today.
Let me through!
You're not going anywhere,
missy. Not like this.
CHAPTER 2 JOCELYN
Every fairy tale hides
evil in plain sight.
In the red apple
given by an old lady.
In the spindle of an
innocent spinning wheel.
La Encantada was no exception.
Deep inside the estate,
they burned the animals
that couldn't
escape their traps.
They'd make a spectacle
of their sins.
To convince us that
they all ended up there.
Why did you take this job?
You're here...
because you're like me.
No. I'm not like you people.
You don't care about
money, because deep down,
you knew you could find
something like this.
A woman running for her life
through an ill*gal butcher shop?
Sorry, but no.
I read your thesis.
You know this is an industry
and they are products.
Who's funding all of this?
I can help you.
As long as you stop playing
dumb and acting naive.
Because you're using them too.
Try not to leave
the house so much.
Lots of wild animals
running around out here.
No. Let's see, turn around.
This is the best you
could get? Seriously?
The money I was given
wasn't enough. I told you.
What you don't have enough of is
imagination and good taste sweetie.
Try this one.
But this isn't new, we
used this one last year.
Recycle it.
Leave it.
Sweetheart.
It's worthless,
that's cheap jewelry.
If it had value, it
wouldn't be there.
You need money, right?
I know much easier ways
of making money here.
And way, way less risky.
What do I have to do?
Well, listen...
go over there and I'll tell you.
I love this.
Drink.
It's useless to get like that.
What's one day in the
life of a young girl?
Two.
She's been missing for two days.
That's why I want
to go home today.
Jocelyn, you're exaggerating.
You're working yourself up.
Really.
Just look at yourself,
at your face, your body.
- You can't do this.
- Exactly.
It doesn't make sense
for me to stay here.
I don't even have
a chance to win.
I'm of no use to...
Don't say that, don't
be so hard on yourself.
Don't say that.
You have to trust
me. Listen to me.
Many young women have
passed through here,
and all of them have problems.
All of them.
Secrets, their
stories, their things.
The only thing that helped them
was focusing on
what they needed.
Like racehorses.
You know racehorses?
The ones that wear these things?
Blinkers.
They can't be looking around,
they get distracted and
don't reach finish line.
I also told your mom.
What your sister did is
just teenage mischief.
That's all.
Since when did you know
Catí hasn't been home?
Has my mom been calling?
Your mother understands
perfectly well
that the last thing you
need is another worry.
She'll take care of it.
My mom's alone.
That's why I'm leaving today.
You do know if you leave,
you can't return, right?
Let me speak with my sponsor.
I wouldn't bother Héctor with
your a personal problems.
Really, Jocelyn.
He'll be more upset if he
hears I quit the pageant.
Let me see what I can do then.
I was asked to help you
find your personal touch
for the pageant's
opening speech.
But I think we should start
by deconstructing everything
we think we know
about ourselves.
Because it probably
comes from a common place
that has been inherited
by our parents
and which society has
hammered into our heads
since before we could
even say our names.
I chose these
books specifically,
especially, for each one of you.
I want you to read them
and then we'll discuss them
in individual sessions.
Some will help us ask
ourselves if we really are
what the world says we are.
Others will help
us understand that,
whether we're in
China or Chihuahua...
we never get a piece of the pie.
They're all about our
desires, our bodies,
our individual voices...
Miss...
What's wrong?
You don't like
English literature?
I don't like being
underestimated.
What do you mean?
Mrs. Dalloway plans parties,
picks flowers, hosts banquets,
and in the end, she
commits suicide.
"Despairing over the
banality of her life."
You said you'd help us
find our personal seal,
but you don't see us
as individuals at all.
You came with a preconceived
notion of who we are.
You think I'm a Mrs.
Dalloway and want to save me
from a fate you
consider pointless.
You're right. I also pick
flowers and host banquets,
and I want a gorgeous house,
and children and a husband.
But where you're wrong is
in thinking that it means
throwing my life away.
I want that, but I
also want to work,
because I want a home.
But I also want a
place in the world,
and the two aren't
mutually exclusive.
You're the one
locked in a prison,
thinking that a woman can't be
liberated and also feminine.
I'd like to read
a different book,
I know this one by heart.
Sure.
I'll choose another
one for you today.
But I'd love it
if you wrote for me that
speech that you just made.
Of course.
Everyone else,
grab your notebooks
and begin writing
the first thing
that comes to your mind
about what you're reading.
I want you to read them
and later on, we'll discuss
them in individual sessions.
Miss Cruz?
Could I speak with you
for a moment, please?
I'll be right back, ladies.
Of course.
Of course, I understand.
Yes, she just needs to hear
something to put her at ease.
Take it as an invitation
to a private party.
Want us to send
you the plane then?
You prefer yours? Fine.
Is it okay if Luisa arranges
the driver with your secretary?
Fine.
Then I'll see you today.
Yes. Me too! Looking
forward to seeing you.
Thanks.
An enormous hug to your
wife for me, please.
Of course.
See you soon.
The Northern Giant
will fly here?
Yes.
This girl is more
stubborn than we thought.
And he's never spent so
much money on the pageant.
We have to please him, right?
I don't think that the
people from that conference
want to hear what I have
to say about Juárez.
I do.
I want to hear.
Go ahead. Rant against Juárez.
You'll see that's where
we'll find your speech.
They won't let me
tell the truth.
What is the truth?
The truth is that
Juárez is a fence
where everyone
goes to crash into,
until they crush their heads
from the blow or out of despair.
The truth is that the factories
swallow our lives whole
for a miserable salary that
we can't even survive on.
And you? What's your story?
I'm that and nothing more.
No. I don't believe you.
I don't think anyone gets here without
believing a tiny bit in themselves.
And who told you
I want to be here?
Back North,
there aren't many
opportunities for women.
And if the town's big shot
bets a stack on your head,
like if you were some race horse
then you run.
You're a smart woman.
And free, Jocelyn.
Those are two useful tools
to start changing your life.
I don't want to be here.
My sister hasn't
gone home for days.
Even if they say she's partying,
but I know it's not true.
Something happened, someone
did something to her.
And the first days are crucial.
And that's much more important
than anything going on here.
I just want to go home.
There are those who say
that our greatest advantage
over animals isn't our thumbs,
or the perspective
walking upright gives us,
but our ability to
share our stories.
For example, there
was once a father
who loved his
daughters so very much,
that he buried
treasures in the desert
so they could find them.
"I loved the letter
that you sent me
yesterday, princess.
Especially the
drawing of Manchas.
I put a bone in there for him.
But don't give him
the chocolates.
Those are for you.
Take good care of Manchas
and everyone else.
We'll be together
soon, my darlings.
Dad."
This is the best one so far.
Nothing could stop their
love. Not even walls.
It has peanuts, and this one
Nor distance.
What's wrong?
We got a call from California.
Your father...
died ten days ago.
Not even death.
Stories help us make
sense of cruelty.
That chick makes me hard.
Don't be a cradle snatcher.
Man, I don't want her right now.
I'm gonna let her
ripen on the branch,
until she falls off
it, right onto my lap.
That girl is too good
for you, dumbass.
But it would be cool
to have our own queen.
So tell me, Rockefeller.
How do you plan on
buying her the crown?
With your ridiculous
factory worker's salary?
You know what the rat did so
the lion wouldn't eat him?
What?
Whispered sweet
nothings in his ear.
It's with pride that I present
another one of my babies to the world.
The most modern textile factory
in all of northern Mexico.
And in the entire
south of the US!
But don't tell the
f*cking gringos,
because they'll get pissed off
and k*ll us with tariffs.
Thank you very much.
Damn!
From which sky did this
little angel fall from?
Right this way, sweetheart.
This angel will help
us cut the ribbon.
But they can also
make it look so normal
that we hardly see it.
Wouldn't you like to make
this little angel your queen?
I don't know how to
thank you, Mr. Canales.
No, no, on the
contrary. I thank you.
In fact, who would've thought
that I'd be in these
kind of events?
That someone like me would
be the owner of a queen.
We all live believing
that we are the architects
of our own lives.
That we can shape them at will.
As if our destinies
were our own.
Antonio told me you were
looking for one of these.
It has no lights, no brakes
and won't shift gears.
But Antonio will
find the spare parts
and have it ready tomorrow...
for you.
Don't thank me.
Only give me the
benefit of the doubt.
Maybe you'll realize we're
not as terrible as you think.
Although La Encantada could be
a menacing animal at times...
the days when it
spread its wings,
displayed its feathers
and showed off its
beautiful colors,
no one could see more
than a mother proud
of her babies.
Ready to send them
off in flight...
in front of the cameras and
hearts of all of Mexico.
From the heights of
the cliffs of El Cobre
to the depths of
Cañón del Sumidero,
Mexico is a
kaleidoscope of beauty.
These are the most beautiful
women in our country.
They all seek a crown.
Now we will meet the
of the Mexican states.
Mexico is light.
The fireflies that fill the
night with their sparkles
make Tlaxcala a
mirror of the sky.
Mexico is magic.
Her spirit lives deep in
the forests and waterfalls.
The hands of the
Oaxaca's artisans
conjure her back to life.
Mexico is tradition.
And most of all, it's
my beautiful home.
Go, Campeche!
Mexico is faith.
From the blue cloak of
Our Lady of Guadalupe
to the winged feet
of the Rarámuris
in the mountains of Chihuahua.
We Mexicans know that
there's something
so much greater than ourselves.
That's why I ask
you to help me find
my sister Catalina Cruz Reynosa,
missing for 72 hours in
the city of Ciudad Juárez.
How old is she?
When was the last
time you saw her?
You called?
Yes, come in.
Did you know this would happen?
No. But I think it's fantastic.
Jocelyn is worried
about her sister
and I think you should help her.
We're also concerned.
My brother spoke to
the Attorney General,
and he's taking care of it.
I called for you because I
thought the idea was yours,
and it was a very good one.
But I see that was not
the case. You may go.
Thanks.
You're my hero.
I mean it.
She has to be very stupid
to dig her grave like that.
One less isn't bad.
But you've gotta
admit she is brave.
Alright, queens, let me through!
Let's give this girl
her pretty face back.
Not too bad, huh?
We could start a
trend for the 90s.
Who would have thought?
The uproar you caused!
You know what?
Courage is the most
important thing
if you want to
survive in a pack.
And you're a survivor.
There's no doubt.
But what you need in
order to find your sister
is money.
And you will find that
here, not out there.
Because no one cares what
happens to your sister,
except for you and your family.
And what you really
need is to hire someone
who'll look for her
under every rock,
because the police
won't do a thing.
You won't find that money
out there, and you know it.
But...
I can help you here.
It's not necessary.
My sponsor's coming tonight
and he will help me.
Well... even better.
But now you know you
can count on me, right?
Where is Jocelyn?
- Smile. Smile.
- Jocelyn!
Smile.
Come with me, please.
Go, Jocelyn.
What happened today was
an act of desperation.
No more, no less.
And we had the highest
ratings in our history.
And now everyone has their
eyes on what happened.
And that's why, Jocelyn...
I remind you how important
it is that you stay here.
We talked about it, and
you agreed to it, right?
I've gathered you
all here because...
I want you to know...
that you're shaping up to
be the pageant's favorites.
That's very good for all of you.
But I don't want you to
share this information
with the other girls.
And everything that
happens tonight
should stay between us.
Alright?
Jocy?
- Yes.
- Good.
You may go.
Some here and the others
in the white one, please.
Thanks.
Follow me, man.
That night, hidden
among the shadows,
were the only
people who actually
had the girls' destinies in
their hands, the sponsors.
No way! It looks like
a fairy tale forest.
And La Encantada was about
to serve them the girls
on a silver platter.
- He's here?
- He's here.
And whatever happens
happens. So relax, yes?
Hello! Good evening.
How are you? So good to see you.
Welcome. Such a pleasure
to have you here.
Well, a new season
brings us together.
Right?
That's always a reason
for celebration.
I'd like to share with you
a very personal opinion.
And without fear of being
wrong, I can assure you
that among these seven beauties
is our next Miss Mexico.
No doubt.
So I'm sure we'll make
fantastic friendships,
and that this will be
the first of many nights
when we celebrate the
sealing of our partnerships.
I invite you to
have a great time,
to celebrate a whole bunch,
and most of all, get acquainted.
So welcome and cheers!
- Welcome. Please...
- Go ahead.
You alright?
Some of them lost their
souls in here, right?
You should be more
concerned with the men.
A pity.
The women are always
more interesting.
Don't you think?
Thank you for coming.
You left me no choice.
Did you?
Are your people
looking for Catí?
I told my mom there's no
need to call the police.
You have an agreement with me.
With me and with my company.
And not just you, but your
mom and your sister too.
So, all I'm asking...
is that you respect me.
Don't forget all I've invested
in you and in your future.
But, Catí...
I've sent people to
look for your sister.
I told them to find her and
to drag her back by her hair
for being so stupid.
She's not the one
I'm worried about.
I'm worried about you, baby.
Did you let the crown go
to your head in this place?
Who said you could throw a
tantrum like a little girl?
Tell me!
Jocy?
- Everything alright, Héctor?
- Yes.
- Yes?
- Thanks.
I think that Jocy has understood
that you're on top of it.
And now she's more
at ease, right?
And Héctor, just relax.
We're at a party,
man. We're at a party!
- You're right.
- You know it.
Remember the girl you
met in the capital
who caught your eye?
She's here!
Ángeles! Come.
This is Héctor.
- Look. This is
Ángeles - A pleasure.
- I'll leave you two. Excuse us.
- Of course.
- How are you?
- Much better now.
La Encantada was
starting to suffocate us.
But we still didn't know
it was only the beginning.
ROOM ASSIGNMENTS
I see you're having a
good time. Let's go.
Whatever you say.
Héctor, I'm leaving
because she tells me to.
Not because I want to go.
You can't forget my shoes
I'll go with you.
I need the money, and
you said you'd help me.
Of course. Come on, let's go.
- Where are you taking us, Nora?
- Careful there.
Can you do it? Watch
how I use the heel.
You're an expert!
Is it far?
We're here.
Because you did this to me.
For the Misses.
Are we going to sleep or what?
Are we making a movie?
Something like that.
Wipe off that look of terror.
We're all going to
have a good time.
Go ahead.
No, I...
Go ahead. Tonight yes. Yes?
More. More.
My turn.
That's it.
I like that.
Wash it down with this.
Guess who the director is.
- When do we start?
- In a minute.
Here. Yes.
Nora.
You explained to
Chihuahua why we're here?
- She looks tense.
- She'll catch on.
Girls, can you listen
to me a second?
We've come to have
fun. Enjoy yourselves.
Do what you want.
The more you have fun,
the better it'll come out.
We'll finish soon, and
you'll earn some money.
Chihuahua, any questions?
You're sure?
Whenever you want, I'm ready.
Ready.
- Rolling camera - Jocy,
it's just a game. A game.
Kiss her. Perfect.
Oaxaca.
Sweetheart, you look too tense.
You have to enjoy this.
Let's earn our money
quickly and go to bed.
Whenever you want.
There...
Let yourselves go.
Touch her.
Come, Jocy.
Undress me.
Kiss her neck.
Taking the dress off...
Oaxaca...
touch her breasts.
Hug each other.
Be taken by the moment.
We're done for today.
Becerra!
Take the employees
and the Indian girl
back to the estate.
Come back for me in an hour.
You know I can't
leave you alone, boss.
If I can't handle two
girls, I should lose my job,
don't you think?
Go on.
And if you want to have
fun with the other girl,
you have my blessing.
Okay then.
Hi.
- What are you doing here?
- I wanted to see how you were.
I'm fine.
Yeah?
Anything you need, I'm here.
Okay.
Well...
I was trying to
loosen my corset,
because I can't breathe,
but I can't do it by myself.
You're sleeping here alone?
No, with Ángeles, but she's
out and hasn't come back.
Well, I can help
you if you want.
Yeah, yeah, yeah...
This thing has these buttons
What about us?
He asked specifically
to get to know you.
Take this opportunity.
He's our next president.
And if you play it right,
I'll give you what I promised.
I'll even double it.
Let's go.
Now what?
Open your mouth.
Don't worry, follow my lead.
I am very, very glad...
to meet you, ladies.
When I first saw you...
I wanted to be alone with you.
And you
what you did today, Chihuahua
I should've k*lled you.
I should've k*lled you.
Oh, babies.
Now, go take a shower
and go to sleep.
And don't say a word about
this to anyone, is that clear?
What about them?
You did very well.
Tomorrow I'll give
you what I promised.
Ángeles. Where are you
going? Ángeles, what's wrong?
Are you okay?
What happened?
Did something happen to you?
Come...
What happened?
- Did something happen?
- Dolores...
What happened with Dolores?
Dolores and Jocelyn.
What happened?
There still over
there in the cabin.
With that man.
Let's go.
Show me where they are.
Did they hurt you?
You like it?
Of course you like
it. You love it.
Enough. Stop, stop, stop.
Let her go. Let her
go. You're hurting her!
You're hurting her!
Let her go!
Let her go son of a b*tch!
What did you do?
He was going to k*ll you.
He was going to k*ll you.
He was going to k*ll you.
The b*stard.
He was going to k*ll you.
He was going to k*ll you.
I'll fix this. You hear me?
We need to get him out of here.
We'll get him out of here.
We'll drag him out and
I'll take care of it, okay?
No, what?
He was going to k*ll you.
He was going to k*ll you.
He was going to k*ll you.
I didn't mean to.
I'll fix it! I swear. I beg you.
Jocy! No, no, no! Jocy!
No, listen to me. Are you
listening to me or not?
Listen to me! Stop your
crying! Listen to me!
I will fix this, okay?
We'll take him out of
here. No one will find out.
We'll take him out. We'll
get rid of him over in...
Yes.
Jocy.
Jocelyn, shut up!
Come here. Come.
The greatest sin one
can commit in a story
is to turn things upside down.
- Are you sure it's this way?
- Yes, but
Turning kings into servants.
The beautiful into the ugly.
And those who think they
have the right to everything
into victims.
Yes. It's this way.
Come on, come on.
Dolores, please. I can't go on.
It's him or us.
Let's see if you get
understand this, dumbass.
The future president just
died from a broken neck.
Who the f*ck is
going to believe us?
Come on, grab him.
There they are!
Dolores! No!
