La casa de las muchachas (Spanish; Castilian: "The House of the Girls"|italics=no) is a 1969 Mexican comedy film directed by Fernando Cortés and starring Amparo Rivelles, Enrique Rambal, Maura Monti, Gilda Mirós and Malú Reyes.[1] [2] [3]
A Mexican, winner of the Nobel Prize, returns to the town where he was born. The local authorities, in tribute, decide to place a plaque on the house where he was born, only to realize that his birthplace is now the local brothel. Consequently, they try to ask the madame to leave the house with her prostitutes and she refuses, but when the honoree arrives, she and her pupils pass themselves as a widow and her decent daughters. From there, the man involuntarily transforms the brothel into a decent house.
