The murder of two partners in a financial consulting firm triggers a major police operation involving Germán Rojo, a powerful man who believes he is untouchable and far above the other mortals, those annoying cockroaches he can crush whenever he wants. However, it has a weakness. Melba, a young woman, who will show her how cockroaches struggle to death to survive, and can take revenge.
