When Don Adrián, a notorious drug lord, dies, his peculiar family gathers in their small hometown for his funeral. However, his last wish adds a bizarre twist to the proceedings: he wants to be mourned and buried standing upright. This unconventional request sends shockwaves through the family, turning what should be a solemn occasion into a chaotic and comedic three-day affair.

Her sole intention is to pay her respects and finally close the door on her complicated relationship with him. Yet, as she reconnects with her family, she begins to uncover hidden facets of her father's life-his flaws, his humanity, and the deep ties that still connect her to her roots.
