One day, Encarna meets María Dolores, former classmate of the school, who introduces her in the world of pyramid selling, sponsored in the company by the own boss, a woman who claims to be real actress Victoria Abril. Believing that it's the opportunity that she was waiting for, Encarna determines to work as saleswoman with María Dolores, discovering a world of money and luxury where she finally finds the chance to be who really she wanted, until that a series of events lead her to question her new lifestyle and how legal it is.
