Ce feuilleton reprend les classiques des soap operas, mêlant affaires de cœur, luttes pour le pouvoir, trahisons et scandales. Il voit se télescoper les vies de membres de plusieurs familles, qu'elles soient issues de la haute-bourgeoisie, des milieux de la finance ou encore de la classe moyenne (une partie d'entre eux travaillant pour la firme Walco, une société de production de voitures dirigée par la famille Edwards).
