María (Hilda Aguirre) is a young orfant woman who lives with her wealthy aunt (Margot Cottens). María uses to sing in a night club along with her friends (who have a rock band named "Los Yakis Voladores"), and enjoys the night with them. One of her friends, Ernesto (Enrique Guzmán), is in love with her, although she doesn't seem to share the same feelings towards him. In fact, her multiple existential questions and a strange emptyness she feels in her life make her suddenly decide entering in a convent as a novice, breaking Ernesto's heart. However, with her happy, open and rebel nature, she doesn't seem to accustom herself to the life at the convent, and she has bigger problems with the novice headmistress, who uses to chastise her trying to lead her in the right direction. At the convent, which also works as a hospital for children, she meets a doctor (Manuel Gil) and she doesn't along with him because of the contrast between their personalities, although they have a mutual liking and respect in their own way.

Luis, Agustín, Pedro, Ana, and Clara, the five owners of the Los Bohemios cabaret, eventually fall into debt after Agustín spends most of their money on a costly inauguration. Without the funds to repay the debt, Luis and his business partners decide to seek monetary help from his uncle Apolonio Aguilar, an eccentric millionaire rancher, who lives in San Miguel el Alto. When they travel to ask Apolonio to lend them the money, he denies and lies, saying that his millions were swindled from him. Though Apolonio is reluctant to lend money to Luis, he sees his nephew as a potential husband for his tough, orphaned goddaughter Paloma who, in fact, falls in love with Luis. Luis, already in a relationship with Ana, decides to obtain the money from Paloma by inviting her to become a partner of the cabaret, which she misinterprets, believing that he is proposing marriage to her. Paloma accepts and becomes one of the principal performers of the cabaret, showcased as a ranchera singer. Once she discovers that Luis is already romantically involved with Ana (though actually they had broken their relationship shortly before), Paloma becomes disillusioned of Luis and decides to leave the cabaret and travel back to San Miguel el Alto, where she finds Luis, who eventually recognizes his love for her.
