En el año 2020, en un México sin telecomunicaciones ni computadoras porque los norteamericanos (proveedores únicos) lo tienen castigado, se desata la lucha por la presidencia, es decir, por sentarse en la Silla del Águila y no abandonarla nunca.


Aquí no hay lealtad que valga: por conseguir el poder, el padre es capaz de traicionar al hijo, la esposa al cónyuge, el secretario de Estado al Primer Mandatario. Y todo puede pasar: crímenes de viejos caciques, espionaje de supuestos allegados, maniobras tétricas, extorsión sexual... e incluso, que reaparezca en la escena política un fallido candidato presidencial al que todos creyeron asesinado años atrás. El triunfador, el Ungido, oculta un pasmoso secreto que será necesario preservar a toda costa.
