Author: daniel Carbajo López from Barcelona, Spain

Caye is a veteran prostitute that is spending her last days in the street. She mets Zulema, a newcomer immigrant prostitute. At first they will hate each other, but hardness of life will make them close friend, for the good and the bad. The movie is not bad, but the main problem is that it is too like "los lunes al sol" but changing the profession of main characters (from work-less to prostitutes). Not only they are very similar but also "princesas" hasn't the charismatic characters of "Los Lunes" (like the ones played by Tosar and Bardem), which makes the result worse. The story is interesting and touching and shows us the prostitutes world with few topics and much truths, but the acting and directing is just correct. I've seen much better parts of Candela Peña and it is not one of the best moments of Aranoa's directing ("Los lunes" is much better). To sum up, it is not bad, but after watching the other film, the result is quite disappointing. It is interesting, but has the problem that "Los lunes" is better. That's all.
