Máximo Ferradas, businessman and youngest son of a powerful family of lifelong fishermen, asks Francisco, his father, for his share of the inheritance. Thus, he begins a long journey that will take him to distant lands, trying to build his own empire. He settles in Perla del Mar, a fishing town in Argentine Patagonia, where he meets Caviedes, a pleasant and enigmatic businessman who offers him the top of business; Coletto, an artisanal fisherman, with whom he faces death due to the fishing law; and Maite, a beautiful and lonely woman, with whom he falls in love for the first time. Maximo plunges into this world. There, so vertiginously he will enjoy his rise, and then suffer his fall ... and then find his redemption.
