In a miserable slum lives La Gata, a raggedy and wild little beggar.
She has no recollection that her real name is Renata Santa Cruz and
that her mother was a famous singer and her father was Fernando Santa
Cruz, a Spanish aristocrat. Doña Tila, the old woman who raises and
exploits her is the only one who knows Renata's past. And yet, in the
midst of her misery, La Gata has friends like prostitute "La Jarocha",
grocer El Frances, and Pablo Martinez Negrete, a rich boy that
befriends Renata. However, all changes once Renata becomes a lovely
young woman and both Pablo and El Frances fall in love with her.
Fernando becomes rich after inheriting a fortune and he finds Renata;
he wants to take a revenge on Augustin, but he has a paralyzing ictus
and he gives up his revenge for Renata's love. Renata marries Pablo and
they have twins. Mariano marries La Jarocha. After Fernando and
Augustin's death, the leading couple have problems because of Lorenzo
and Monica's interference and plots. After Pablo's nervous breakdown,
they will recover their lost love.
