Con el cuerpo prestado

Con el cuerpo prestado (English: "With a Borrowed Body") is a 1983 Mexican fantasy comedy film directed by Tulio Demicheli and starring Sasha Montenegro and María Sorté.

[1] Marta (Montenegro), a woman who tries to commit suicide, is saved by another, Carlota (Sorté), from drowning, but in preventing it Carlota herself dies drowned.

After a while, Carlota returns in spirit to take possession of Marta's body and thus meet the man she loved in life.

In her book Sara García: Ícono cinematográfico mexicano, abuela y lesbiana, Ileana Baeza Lope cites the film as one of the exceptions to the tendency in Mexican cinema of "affective relationships between women [being] relegated to the sidelines", while "male camaraderie relationships were in the foreground".
