Entre mujeres ("Among Women"), later renamed Brujas ("Witches") is a 1988 play written by Spanish playwright Santiago Moncada.
Plot After 25 years apart, five women—all former students of a religious school—reunite at one of their homes, giving them the opportunity to recount their life stories and reminisce about their time at the school, which each of them perceived differently: Elena, the hostess, married to a high-ranking executive; Carlota, a bohemian writer; Luisa, a high-class prostitute; Hortensia, happily married; and Amelia, a lawyer whose marriage is in trouble.
