Plot

It is 1980 in Mexico City, where there are millions of people who dream of a better life, while others cry and suffer for their lost well-being.

In the D'Ruby cabaret lives Salomé (Edith González), she is the main dancer of the show; her beauty and sensuality captivate the audience. Salomé and Karicia (Niurka) are two supportive friends through thick and thin. Together with Yolanda (Yolanda Montes "Tongolele"), the owner of the place, who in her time was known as the "Queen of the Night", they are the soul and motor of the cabaret.

The dressing room is Salomé's refuge. Surrounded by lights, feathers and sequins, it would seem that her life is a constant party, but it is not. She found in dance a way to understand life, to challenge the past. She maintains an internal fight that does not end; since she was a child, she got to know pain due to the abandonment of her parents. She was tricked in love and has survived in a hostile world. "El Figurín" (Roberto Palazuelos) is the heartthrob of the neighborhood. He is violent, macho and in love with Salomé, but she breaks up the relationship because she dreams of true love.

Near the cabaret there is a neighborhood where a series of characters live: There we get to know Kikis (Rosita Pelayo), a gossipy but cooperative woman; Hipólito (Jaime Garza), who is a plumber, but laziness and the inability to think about the future have made him mediocre; Marta (Paty Díaz), his wife, wants a better life, has aspirations and feels that her marriage is dying. Piro (Carlos Eduardo Rico), Marta's brother, lives with them. He is very similar to Hipólito, they spend their time joking and playing, as if they didn't take life seriously. Lola (Leticia Perdigón) sells fayuca and, together with "El Figurín", she controls a gang. She falls in love with David (Milton Cortés), who has a secret and will be Lola's downfall.

On the other side of the city, in a mansion, lives the Montesino family: Julio (Guy Ecker) and Ángela (Mónika Sánchez) are married. She is a sick woman and her husband faces the problem and patiently bears the eventful marital life he is forced to live. Lucrecia (María Rubio), Julio's mother, thinks that Ángela, being sterile, represents an obstacle for the family. Accustomed to dominate and to modify wills, she will twist Julio's destiny until she achieves her longed-for grandson.

Arturo (Aarón Hernán), Lucrecia's husband, has assumed his life as a faithful and good husband. He accepts Lucrecia's feminine strength because he loves her and prefers to live in peace. He is an understanding father and wants to keep the family together. Manola (Patricia Reyes Spíndola) is a strong woman, she faces Lucrecia, she does not allow Ángela to be hurt. She is the guardian angel of the Montesino family. She has dedicated her life to the service of the family, she represents balance and good sense.

Diego (Sebastián Ligarde), Ángela's half brother, lives with them. He is a playboy, partygoer and regular client of the D'Ruby cabaret. On a drunken night, Diego arrives at the mansion accompanied by Salomé and Karicia.

It is fate that leads Salomé by the hand to meet Julio. One look, one kiss and they will no longer be able to leave each other. Secretly, far away, they will consummate their deep, but forbidden love... Salomé will have to face adverse and painful situations.
