This condensed version of the Mexican telenovela series centers around identical triplets Maria Guadalupe, Maria Paula, and Maria Fernanda - whose uncanny resemblance to one another betrays the fact that they all possess deeply disparate personalities. When the triplets were just young girls, their parents were killed in a tragic car accident. Later, Maria Guadalupe falls down a mountain and into a river. Though she is believed to be dead, Maria Guadalupe is still very much alive. She's being raised by Ana Sales, who is still struggling with her own mother's death and who vows to raise the child as her own - even after discovering the truth about her identity. Meanwhile, Maria Fernanda has been rendered blind in an accident, and refuses to give up hope that her sibling somehow survived her treacherous fall. The most glamorous of the three sisters is Maria Paula, though her outward radiance masks a deep selfishness. Maria Paula always has to be the center of attention, especially when she's around her uncle Eduardo and grandmother Mercedes. When Maria Guadalupe and Ana arrive in Mexico City to seek treatment for an illness, the amnesiac sister falls for a handsome and kindhearted cab driver named Nicolas, who has just moved to the city to live with his grandfather. Though Ana tries her best to conceal Maria Guadalupe's true identity by restricting the actions of the young girl, Nicolas' grandfather knows the truth. Before long, the lives of all three sisters converge in Mexico City, drawing the people around them together in a manner that no one could have foreseen. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

In the U.S.-made films starring Charles Bronson, he is invariably an innocent and ordinary man who is forced by circumstances into fighting back against brutal thugs and official indifference. Many Mexican-made movies starring Eduardo Yanez cover much the same territory. In the story, Roca (Duran) is blithely making plans for his upcoming marriage and has gone to consult with his father about something. He discovers that his father, a banker, has been turning a blind (but knowledgeable) eye to Mafia doings for many years. He was willing to do this until the mob got involved in the drug trade, and now he must find some way to disappear. As it happens, the gangs get wind of the situation, and both men must go into hiding. When the Mafia kills the father, the son embarks on a one-man war. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide
