The new space in which her life passes has new colors, and also new sounds: one day she hears a Marinera (the most popular of Peruvian folk dances) and she is drawn to the place she came from: a dance academy. The passion of the Marinera Norteña leaves her shocked and she decides to take classes, meeting a group of women with extraordinary stories that will radically change her way of seeing life. At sixty years old, Marialicia, will have a new opportunity to discover what it is that she wants.
