The family story will unfold through the most emblematic rhythms of cumbia and will follow the emotional story of Fernando, a low-income young man who fights for a better future for himself and to fulfill the dream of his parents, Flor and Elías: having a cumbia venue, his passion.

However, when they face adversity and must sell their house and the kiosk where Elías has worked all his life, something magical happens. The kiosk is filled with memories and music, as if it were a living time machine.
Motivated by that impulse and by reuniting with his childhood love, Elsa, Fernando will risk everything for his dreams and become the great cumbia singer he always dreamed of being.
