What happens

Naná is a 1985 Mexican musical, erotic and sexploitation film directed by Rafael Baledón. The film follows a beautiful young woman of humble origins who seeks, through the high prostitution, access to a well-off. Naná symbolizes the degradation of the Second Empire. The film is an adaptation of the 1970s Mexican stageplay of the same name, produced by the actress and singer Irma Serrano. The stageplay was itself based on the 1880 novel Nana, by Emile Zola.
