Plot

A thief known in criminal circles as Aniceto Ugartechea steals jewelry from guests at a gathering hosted by the married couple Valentín Gaytán, originally from an indigenous community in Chiapas, and Magdalena, an aristocrat who supports the household financially along with their son. It is later revealed that Valentín is behind this and other thefts, while also involved with a cabaret singer named Margot. When Valentín decides to turn his life around, Margot responds by taking a job as a maid in the household and giving him an ultimatum: he has 24 hours to divorce Magdalena or she will harm his wife and son.
