Mexican drug trafficker Salvador López, along with his Peruvian partners Leonardo and Rafael, are celebrating the success of their alliance at a private gathering. In the middle of the party, Jorge Cisneros arrives, offering the Peruvians the opportunity to become one of their buyers, which enrages Salvador. The Peruvians reject him, and Cisneros leaves, offended, later attempting to kill the Peruvians. Thus begins an all-out war.
