Montreal 1993, Paloma Luisa Marquez Hermosa, a beautiful woman in her forties, of Colombian origin, is at the height of her fame. At the head of a criminal organization as discreet as it is efficient, she is responsible for the transit of cocaine in Montreal and its money laundering. Inspired by a true story, she is the so-called Godmother of the Cali Cartel. Guided by her heart, she will stop at nothing to provide for her family. She will find herself in the line of fire of the policeman Paul Généreux who is determined to bring down the Cartel.
