Two years after the Mexican earthquake, in a section of Mexico City called Tepito, families of up to twenty members are living in a single dwelling. The women are powerful, funny and intent on finding resources to build decent housing. Palomas is a video portrait drawing you into their lives. Imbued with respect for these women and their struggle, it avoids the pitfalls of pity and sentiment.

Deux ans après le tremblement de terre, dans un quartier de Mexico appelé Tepito, des femmes luttent toujours pour leur survie. Pendant quatre jours, quelques-unes d'entre elles ont permis à la réalisatrice de laisser tourner sa caméra.
