Los Peques live somewhere in the Andean Patagonian mountain range of Neuquén, in houses called small 𝘳𝘶𝘬𝘢𝘴, which are a kind of tree hut and are built with materials given to them by Mother Nature. They have an organization, the Mapu Armies, they have nothing to do with wars, but with the care of nature. When the youngsters enter what is known as the awkward age, they are sent to watch remote areas so that they do not hang around.

Although he always wanted to become a professional soccer player, El Chanfle has settled for being the props boy and water boy for Mexican soccer's Club América, whose coach they both have trouble getting along with because of the Chanfle's heightened sense of honesty and cleanliness on the court, something the rigid coach does not share. When he is asked to cheat during a game he refuses and is fired from his job, but his friend, the team doctor will try to get him back. At the same time, his wife Tere announces to be pregnant, and trying to sell a gun in order to make money for their future, unintentionally scares a old man, Chato, with it, who now seeks revenge.
