"La Ultima Esperanza" ("The Last Hope") is the name of a marginal area where live very poor and hardworking people, and also others not so hardworking: lazy, opportunists and criminals. Here lives the heroine Estelita, her mother looks for job incessantly and tries to subsist in the poverty of her home, coexisting with her alcoholic and depressive father. Enterprising, vital and kind Estelita meets Daniel: a young millionaire and playboy, dedicated to the fleeting romances and to the good life and money that he inherited from his deceased parents. He is immediately attracted to her, as she is not like other women he used to know.
He falls in love with her virginal simplicity and to be able to win her
heart he chooses a strange way: he pretends to be a poor guy from the
same neighborhood. The uncle of Daniel is a millionaire and prestigious
industrialist, worldwide famous, dedicated and honest businessman who
made his fortune with hard work and impeccable behavior. But at night,
in a wig and with false moustaches, wearing fancy clothes and several
golden chains and rings, he handles the clandestine businesses. Daniel
ignores this fact and thinks that he is a good uncle, protective and
honest. The lands of "La Ultima Esperanza" belong to Daniel, but his
uncle in a fraudulent manner wants to seize Daniel of those, to
demolish the poor neighborhood and to construct a very lucrative
residential area.
