Mexico City: the actress Pamela Dosantos attained stardom due to her famous thighs and a big, generous heart through which Mexico's top politicians have passed. The appearance of her savagely mutilated body leads to a crisis with unimaginable consequences for the returning PRI (Institutional Revolutionary Party) . Tomás, a journalist steeped in despondency, hurriedly writing a column on the murder of the famous actress, incorporates a highly tempting detail about where the body was found without checking its authenticity. The publication of this apparently uninteresting makes him the focus of attention: the body was just a few metres from the house of Salazar, the most feared man in the new regime.
