SYNOPSIS
Leading Ladies reflects how guilt affects us in different ways based on our perspective or memories. A welcome dinner is the excuse to discover that we always keep a secret from who know us the best. Five points of view that show us that each of these five girls tries, as best they can, to lead their own lives. Some lies have been saved for years, other where hidden for months… But many of them will come to light during this special meeting.
