Her wealthy family is suddenly now in ruins and only Ignacio, Idoia's father, can help them, setting off a chain of events that will test Elsa's values, dignity and determine her fate. So, Elsa is confronted with a dilemma, does she become a bargaining chip to save her family, or will she save herself?
