- As children in Mexico, Rafael and Pablo swear loyalty to one another, even though both love their friend Isabel. When, as adults, Isabel learns that Pablo, whom she loves, has joined the French Foreign Legion and been sent to a harsh disciplinary unit, she begs Rafael to find him and save him. Though Rafael deeply loves Isabel and wants her for himself, he joins the Legion in Africa in hopes of rescuing Pablo for the woman they both love.
- A small disparate group of people are aboard a multi-day, multi-stop flight from Mexico City to Buenos Aires. Beyond the crew of pilot, Roberto Beltrán, a loner, his co-pilot Carlos Cervantes who is always looking for love, and Paco the flight steward, the passengers are: spoiled and rich Jorge Mancera and his innocent fiancée Margarita Téllez, who are posing as a businessman and his secretary but who are really running away to elope in Venezuela; elderly Marta Ortos and her henpecked husband, Professor Enrique Ortos, a botanist and anthropologist, the two who probably only have stayed married for as long as they have out of inertia; "Pibe", a young adolescent boy who is traveling with his male nanny, Pedro, ahead of the boy's professional polo playing father who will join them in Buenos Aires on a later flight; Lucy Alcázar, who most of the other passengers believe to be a trollop as a young woman traveling alone; and Sr. Ibáñez, a bounty hunter, who is transporting Sr. Vázquez, a bank robber and murderer, back to Argentina, the country of the crimes, so that Ibáñez can collect his reward and Vázquez face certain execution. On the second leg of the flight, the plane is thrown far off course in a tropical storm, and combined with mechanical difficulties, they are forced to crash land somewhere in the jungle. Those that live through the crash have to band together for their survival, they needing to figure out if the natural order of their civilized lives applies in who will do what, most specifically who will make the important decisions. The plane may be repairable, but as time progresses and they learn of certain hazards in the area, they will have to make some difficult decisions in this matter, and in matters that may affect life or will affect certain death.
- In this Mexican version of Winterset (inspired by the 20s Sacco Vanzetti case) an idealistic youth searches for the culprit behind a crime that his father was wrongly accused of several years before.
- Lawyer Roberto Montes is engaged to Alicia Candón, who became his ward following the death of her father/his friend, whose estate he handled for her. Although he loves Alicia, Roberto isn't sure, the longer their engagement progresses, if she truly does love him and just doesn't want to tell him otherwise with she perhaps coming to the realization that her initial feelings for him were more gratitude than romantic love. He also suspects that she has really fallen in love with someone closer to her own age, perhaps the young man they ran into at the department store. Roberto's suspicions are indeed true, the young man up-and-coming artist Carlos Alcalde. Complications ensue in the love triangle when a young woman, Ana Silva, is found dead of a gunshot wound in Carlos' studio, Carlos who vows he did not kill her and does not know who did. She was an old flame of his who was stalking him. Alicia is able to convince Roberto to take Carlos' case. How Roberto decides to defend him takes into account his love for Alicia, knowing that Alicia and Carlos are in love with each other, and a secret about Ana's death about only he is aware. What may further complicate matters in the trial are a misdialed telephone call, and an errant woman's hat, man's coat and man's glove found at the murder scene and the identity of each of these item's owner.
