The Female: Seventy Times Seven
How Many Times Oh Lord How Many Times
A melancholic character study of a Mexican prostitute whose present circumstances are illuminated through fragmented memories of love, labor, and circumstance.
Cora is a Mexican prostitute with typically inconsiderate johns. She is troubled by a hole in the ceiling. The hole triggers flashbacks regarding how she got to where she is; she hooked up with a gringo and got involved in digging a well. A horse thief given up for dead gives them a hand.
