The famous fairy tale of Cinderella is adapted to our times, considering as background the present situation of Puerto Rican coffee growers. The story is set in Lares, Puerto Rico, at a time close to Christmas. Miosotis’s father has died and Ava Rice, his widow, wants to sell his family coffee farm to a foreign company, whose monopoly on the island continues to displace the country's coffee growers.
