Set in a brothel in northern Argentina, Venecia unfolds a vibrant marginal world where wit and humor intertwine with deep humanity. At the heart of the story is La Gringa — an elderly, blind madam who dreams of traveling to Venice to reunite with the love of her life and finally free herself from a lingering guilt.
