Felipe is a young Nicaraguan who survives the war of revolution against the dictatorship of Anastasio Somoza. Like most of the Nicaraguan people; he fought against the tyranny surviving to the war. After the triumph of the revolution; Felipe finds out that the revolution obeys to international political anti-democratic interest. Observing the new acts of repression of the newly established revolutionary regime and threats against his own life; Felipe decides to emigrate to the U.S.A. in search of peace and freedom for him and his newly initiated family, thus embarking on a journey through Mexico in a dangerous adventure toward the unknown to a very different culture, toward hope and a new life. As an immigrant and without speaking the language, Felipe suffers the hardships of an immigrant; betrayals, deceptions, humiliations, and exploitations are the obstacles he has to overcome. With his faith and strength of spirit, Felipe manages to overcome every painful obstacle. Settling in "The Silicon Valley" cradle of the world's technology at that time. Overcoming the blows and challenges that life brings. A story of life; sorrows and joys. Funny and touching, but above all a story of love and success.
