A complex storyline which includes Argentina history, romance, drama and much more. A story of ethics, infidelity, love and hate around the renowned David Siqueiros, no one is innocent here; everybody shows weakness and values as well, there is no black and white. There are multiple tones, as in a Siqueiros painting.
