On Thursday, February 14, at 7:30 p.m. in the Luzzy Acting Hall, the director Mabel Lozano will be at the Feminist Thought Encounters of the program of the Department of Culture 'Cartagena Piensa', presenting her latest documentary 'El proxeneta .
Paso corto, mala leche '(Spain, 2018) of which she is the director, and which is the adaptation to the cinema of the homonymous book that she published in 2017.
In these meetings, organized in collaboration with the Department of Equality, the director will make an introduction to the documentary prior to the screening and will be presented by Ana Ballabriga.
The projection is part of the programming of the Ficcmoteca de Luzzy.
Based on the book El Proxeneta (Editorial Alrevés, 2017) by Mabel Lozano, the documentary tells from the first person voice of Miguel, nicknamed "El Músico", and how one night he became every night of his life.
He began as a doorman at the age of 17 in a hostess club and ended up importing women as merchandise to supply the macro brothels that he ran together with his partners throughout the Spanish geography.
Sentenced to 27 years in prison for coercive prostitution, recruitment and exploitation of human trafficking, "El Músico" unravels the gears of the masters of prostitution and trafficking in Spain.
