His comfortable existence is disrupted when he discovers that his beloved daughter Laura... (read more) (Emilia Mazer) has become the lover of a political activist (Miguel Angel Sola) who is on the military's hit list. When his daughter is kidnapped, Johann attempts to use his government connections to free both her and her lover.
