The story

What Is Brujas About?

The premise of Brujas without spoilers.

Three women of different ages converge in a sweltering, semi‑deserted Spanish town: 17‑year‑old Patricia roams Spain searching for a man; 27‑year‑old Sol, a door‑to‑door salesgirl, has just been evicted and faces financial hardship; and middle‑aged Virginia, a housewife, decides to start a new life after two decades. Over a single intense 24‑hour stretch they bond, each becoming a modern‑day “witch” in her own way.
