An ambitious Colombian composer travels to New York to pursue his career and finds it difficult to survive, stay, and, obviously, practice his profession. Just as he is about to give up, he meets a famous American musician who hires him as a driver to travel around the country, encountering all kinds of adventures along the way. The gringo musician’s addiction to drugs and alcohol prevents him from performing at a concert, and he is replaced by our Latin man, who triumphs loudly.
