Freedom is a state of mind... Carlos, José and Matias are three old friends who have known each other since childhood. José lives with his daughter, his son in law and his nine-year-old grandson Pedro. Being a grandfather is his only true source of happiness. Carlos is retired and spends most of his days tinkering. Matias, on the other hand, is a widower and lives alone and abandoned, as his son is living abroad. Each of them has a strong and contentious character of their own, but they are all joined by a deep friendship. When José is sent to a retirement home, Carlos and Matias set a plan to bust him out. They sneak into the retirement home and take him away from that depressing environment in which he was discarded. They know that they can’t come back home, so they decide to spend a while in Matias’ house up north. But, in the middle of their escape, they find José’s grandson snuck in there. Pedro doesn't want to leave his grandpa and insists on accompanying them in their journey.

The conventional love triangle—the wife, the man (coffee exporter), the other woman (his secretary). Faced with the discovery of infidelity, a frivolous woman is forced to give way to her rival, the mother of her husband's child. She therefore decides to leave for the metropolis and start a new life, against all odds... Fate will bring the couple back together, in dramatic circumstances, with a glimmer of happiness.
