The same happened to Cristina, misnamed "Joselito" at the time, who had to survive a violent and cruel childhood under Spain in the sixties. Two women who were born in very different times but who, by chance or by destiny, end up together forever, when Valeria, a journalism student, decides to write a book about the life of the iconic Cristina, La Veneno.
