Cocaine is brought from Bolivia to Chile to be shipped from there overseas. The group involved is the Ferragut family, controlled from prison by the family's matriarch, Kika. The four men involved in the operation are Mario Moreno, a man without scruples fiercely loyal to Kika; Vicente Ferragut, Kika's son; Salamanca, a former revolutionary; and Tegui, a man with many secrets.

After the ambush, the fugitives take hostage the only survivor from the port: the son of the drug trafficker who may be responsible for the deaths of their relatives.

The fugitives exchange hostages with Cacho Aguilera. However, when one of the parties does not get what was agreed upon, a war begins.
