So much so that, if you ask any Venezuelan girl what she wants to be when she grows up, she is very likely to respond, "una miss”. As seen in the documentary, in Venezuela it is very easy to find beautiful women in all places, of any race and social class, and it is not uncommon for there to be as many modeling academies because as I mentioned before, many little girls dream of being misses.
