In the heart of Mexico's bustling television industry lies TV MX, a powerful corporation with the power to shape public perception and even influence elections. When Governor Carmelo Vargas finds himself embroiled in a scandal involving serious crimes and illicit business dealings, he knows his political future hangs precariously in the balance.
