Spanish original
Diego, a father struggling to give his daughter Xóchitl a real home, sees his life transformed when the mural she paints opens a portal to Tollan, the realm of the Mexica gods. As Xóchitl is chosen as a possible Sixth Sun, the ambitious Tezcatlipoca plots to claim that power. Separated between worlds, father and daughter must face deception, gods, and their own flaws to reunite. With the help of unexpected allies, they discover that true strength is born from sacrifice, trust, and faith in humanity.
