Synopsis

Malena had her tubes tied after an abusive relationship and fled to Mexico City seeking a better life, but her ex-husband got custody of her children despite her fight. Today she has a new partner and is finishing the house where she dreams of living with her three teenage children and a new baby. However, she needs IVF treatment if she is to have a second chance now that she's older. Feeling abandoned, Malena’s children punish her while her partner threatens to leave if the IVF fails. Will she be able to pull everyone together and make her dreams come true?
