When Juan Diego grows up, he goes to the United States and becomes a famous writer. And in his Mexican childhood, fate leads the "junkyard reader" from the orphanage "House of Lost Children" to the "Diva Circus" with its trained lions and aerial gymnasts. Only Juan Diego understands what his little sister Lupe is saying - but she can read minds: "She's usually right about the past... She doesn't read the future so accurately. All the tragedies of the past are revealed to her - but she tries to prevent the disaster that is yet to come. And so, after many years, Juan Diego travels from New York to the Philippines, where his dreams and memories will finally collide with the future. Miraculously, someone always turns up beside him, one of a pair of mysterious beauties, a mother and daughter he met on the airplane...
