As a nation mourns the 1995 death of Carlos "Carlitos" Menem Jr. in a helicopter crash, his mother Zulema begins to suspect foul play.

While Zulema works to convince the courts that her son was assassinated, a web of lies and corruption begins to emerge around Menem's administration.

As investigators find evidence supporting Zulema's claims, the former first lady begins to cast blame on her ex-husband.

As President Menem's final term comes to an end -- and he begins to face official scrutiny -- Zulema turns to the United States government for help.
