Plot
The film begins in Bogota, Colombia, where Cataleya's father, Fabio, is having a secret meeting with Marcos, a drug lord to pay off his remaining debt. Fabio, however, learns that Marcos is putting a hit out on him and his family for a valuable item that he holds and Marcos wants. Fabio rushes home and warns Alicia, his wife, that Marcos is coming after them. While Alicia packs, Fabio hands Cataleya a business card, which should lead her to an airport security office, just in case. Fabio hands Cataleya the item that Marco wants, telling her not to lose it and to give it to the Ambassador so that she can get a U.S. passport. He also tells Cataylea to meet up with her uncle, who will take care of her. He tells her to, "Never forget where (she) came from." Soon, Marcos and his thugs arrive at Fabio's residence. Fabio, Alicia, and Cataleya try to escape, but the house is surrounded. Fabio and Alicia have Cataleya sit on the kitchen table and to not move no matter what, knowing the men aren't going to harm her. Cataleya witnesses both her parents gunned down quickly.
Marcos locates Cataleya and tells her that he's a good man and he killed her father because he betrayed him. Marcos knows that Cataleya knows the whereabouts of the unknown item and offers to let her go unharmed if she gets him what he wants. Cataleya stabs Marcos with a kitchen knife and escapes her house. She runs through the street of Bogota and is able to slip away by hiding inside a water sewer. She then uses the business card her father gave her and goes to the Ambassador's office. Cataleya vomits out the valuable information Marcos was looking for, which she swallowed before entering the water sewer. In exchange for this, they give her a passport, and she takes the first flight to America. At the airport, Department of Social Services guides Cataleya. Cataleya pretends to want to use the bathroom and escapes to her uncle, Emilio. The next day, Cataleya and Emilio talk about Cataleya's dreams. Cataleya, at first, wanted to be a designer artist, but, because of her parents' death, Cataleya presents a strange request to her uncle; she wants him to help her become a killer.
