Not capable of opposing the call of her home, she proceeds to the vile streets where she was raised to look into the subject. She takes a sabbatical from work, and heads back to the barrio she once knew, sending her father on vacation so she can get down to business. It isn't long before she enlists the help of a loose-cannon childhood friend, named Vanessa (Mirtha Michelle), and rekindles an old flame, named Hector (Kalex), all in the name of avenging her murdered brother.
