- Overview
- Cristiano Bruno is a young man that resides in one of the poorest slums in the highlands of Santo Domingo. He was raised by his mother, Maritza Bruno, after the incarceration of his father Marcos Ramirez for allegedly being involved in dirty business, and drug dealing years before Cristianos birth. Cristiano grew up surrounded by a difficult and precarious environment, leaning, like his father before him, towards the business of selling and trading narcotics. Cristiano falls into what seemed to be a lucrative business but gets betrayed and entangled in the maze of envy and deceit that leads to the tragical resolution of this story.
