Chava is not lucky in love. Everything seems to change when a mysterious admirer, Brujita, starts sending him messages.

During his quest, he will learn unknown sides of his family, his friends, and even himself, which will allow him to determine who he is and who he wants to love. A coming-of-age story about adolescence, and the doubts and thrills of the first serious love story. A light-hearted romantic comedy, already a great success in Mexico.
