Franco is a porteño who is very sentimental, a musician, separated and with a couple of dreams. Veronica, a brave young girl, attractive and intelligent, who always obtains what she wants.

While Veronica was traveling through New York, she surprisingly decided to stay and live in the city. When Franco, her father, hears the news, he decides to travel and pay her a visit with the goal of bringing her back to Argentina.

Even though it’s hard for Franco to admit it, he’ll discover that in the past months Veronica has grown and is more mature. She has formed a music band called The Verónikos, they debuted in a café and they have shown that they could succeed in the music industry.
