The story dates several years back when Leo (Eduardo Santamarina) loses
his vision. He is involved in sales of encyclopedias and also reds
lectures at the local museum. As a disabled, he know how difficult it is
to live blind and he teaches the Braille to those who is eager to
learn. In the meantime, Nicole (Laura Carmine) suffers from the
hurricane in her town. She dreams of working in the cinematography
industry while she studies art design. For the time being she works up
at the prestigious boutique owned by Eleonor Cortazar. Both of them live
at the boarding house maintained by Doña Carola Tinoc (Maria Marcela),
Nicole’s mother.
Those living in the house feel like they are the whole family and though they prefer rather being dependants, they always give a hand to each other, when and if necessary.
Leo gets blind in the car accident but his appearance does not correspond to the look of a person with disability as we are used to make up. He is happy and optimistic. Sabrine is responsive and friendly though she is a kleptomaniac, and people know about it. She steals minor things to attract people around her. Gianna, a young girl from the middle class, has a bad temper, though. Both girls are in love with Leo.
Julia Mistral (Alessandra Rosaldo) is a newcomer to the boarding house and she is looking for a job. Lalo Garnica (René Mussi) is an electrician to work at the repair shop with the best friend Poncho (Pepe Gámez). Yola (Sachi Tamaziro) works as the casher in the moll. Bosco (Oscar Zamanillo) studied to become a jockey, and he works as a groom at the racecourse. Don Chuy (Jorge Ortín) plays a contrabass at the restaurant. Doña Carola owns the boarding house and is always strict to those who do not pay in time. Flora (Yousi Diaz) is a cook and her son, Tobi (Robin Vega) is an assistant to Leo.
These characters are related others living other life style, so much different from that of theirs. Eleonor Cortazarе is a beautiful woman, very wealthy, who is involved in active social events. Her daughter Veronica (Lili Goretti) despises her for they always compete in love affairs. Salma (Shairs Cid) is a best friend to Eleonor who hopes that Octavio (Otto Sirgo), a rich businessman, comes to marry her. Salma has no idea that Octavio has a lover, Julia, he keeps relations with for many years and she appears at the boarding house as a new guest.
Julia gets to know with Iker (Erick Elías), an attractive and rich young man and falls in love with him at first sight. She does not even guess that Iker is a son to the best friend to Octavio. Iker has a brother, José Carlos (Ricardo Franco), who is a great womanizer and a sister Isabela (Ximena Herrera), a light-minded young girl who despises the whole world where she lives and she realizes it is better to live a double life. She appears at the boarding house pretending to be poor and she feels something strong and exciting to Leo. Mientras Marco (Mauricio Mejía) loves her from the very childhood and dreams of marrying her in the future.
This is a story about two worlds that come together to face various problems and live a choice of situations typical to those social layers. They live in different places and this is what attracts attention to all of scenes they experience.
