In a time of political and social upheaval in a South American country, the story follows the life of Clara, a young woman with psychic abilities who comes from a family with deep and complex roots. From her childhood on a vast estate, Clara becomes a witness to the secrets, loves, and tragedies that mark her family's life and their connection to the tumultuous outside world. Her life intertwines with that of Esteban Trueba, an ambitious landowner who, upon falling in love with her, seeks to carve his way in a society that contrasts power with oppression.

Over the years, their relationship develops against a backdrop of inequality and violence, plunging the family into a cycle of love and conflict. The struggle for power, mirrored in the confrontation between Esteban and his socially engaged daughter Blanca, becomes a reflection of national tensions, while the ghosts of the past continue to haunt the characters. Clara's visions and the supernatural echoes of time suggest that the decisions of each generation shape the future of their lineage. The story unfolds with a backdrop of magical realism, offering a poetic insight into love, betrayal, and destiny, where the past is never forgotten, and every choice carries its weight. Thus, the narrative becomes a powerful portrait of the resistance between idealism and disillusionment in a changing world.
