Más allá de las "puertas giratorias", unos grupos pequeños de altos funcionarios, personas vinculadas al poder real, sobre todo al económico, toman las decisiones y lo hacen sin responder ante los ciudadanos ni escucharles.

While there, she looks into systemic problems and what makes the city tick, but she also finds herself being pulled back into a cycle of poverty.
