Synopsis

Silvana "Chivis" (

), is a wealthy socialite with three daughters. When her husband flees from police before he’s arrested for fraud, Chivis and her family are left broke and homeless. She is forced to move to a modest middle class neighborhood of working people. Here she meets her neighbor Manuel (

), who owns a seafood business located in a large fish market. Manuel, his daughter and three sons are wary of everyone from high society and have issues with people who come from that social class. Once they meet, though, the attraction builds, but they do their utmost not to disrupt the balance of their lives and their families’ lives, regarding the difference in social status to be an obstacle to the love they feel.
