Synopsis 10 years have passed since a car accident left a great void in the fans of the Grupo Néctar. So, we find ourselves with the story of Sarita, an old woman who despite the Alzheimer does not forget the promise that her three grandchildren made her almost 10 years ago: a concert with Johnny Orosco and his group Nectar at her home. This is how the adventure of Tato, Memo and Gianfranco begins, three grandchildren willing to do anything to not disappoint or hurt the feelings of their beloved grandmother.
