"I thank Telemundo and Underground Producciones, as well as all their tireless collaborators, for allowing me to continue dreaming."

This new miniseries, based on the original Argentinian series Historia de un Clan and inspired by real events, tells the story of the Grecos, a family that, under the guise of being very traditional, hides a criminal clan. Aquiles Greco (Colunga) is a disciplined and authoritarian man, a retired officer who will do whatever it takes to maintain his family’s status. He is married to Marta (Owen), an ambitious woman, with whom he has four children. To achieve the power that he and his wife desire, Aquiles devises a very lucrative business. Their home becomes the operations center, and little by little, their true identity will be discovered - a family organization responsible for kidnapping, torturing and killing wealthy victims, demanding millions in ransom. But when they finally receive the money, instead of freeing their prisoners - influential individuals from their own social circle and friends of their children - they kill them.

Created by Sebastián Ortega, the series is a Telemundo Streaming Studios and Underground Producciones production, written by Martín Méndez and Alejandro Quesada and directed by Alejandro Ciancio. Marcos Santana, Sebastián Ortega, Leandro Culell, Juan Ponce and Pablo Culell serve as executive producers.
