A crowd gathers at the Port of Veracruz to greet the Spaniards disembarking from the Sinaia, the first ship chartered by Negri|¹n to save the republicans from the oppression unleashed in Spain. Among them are painters Somoza and Marcial, loyal defenders of the Republic; the architect Eduardo Toledo, wartime captain of a batallion of fortifications, along with his family; and brothers and photographers Gabino, Mauricio, and Daniel Estrella. While trying to get started as an architect in his adoptive country, and while the war that has broken out in Europe spreads across Asia, Africa, and the Americas, Eduardo Toledo searches for the way to free himself from the memory of an event at the Battle of the Ebro that keeps him from rebuilding his life and his marriage with Blanca.

For his part, Gabino Estrella works taking aerial photographs of the country for President Ca|¹rdenas, and has secretly fallen in love with Blanca, the only person capable of freeing him from the emptiness that has befallen him after the loss of his wife
