Leaving Mexico for Los Angeles to find the baby’s mother, Valentin ends up finding a new home for himself and his newfound daughter, Maggie. An unlikely father figure, Valentin raises Maggie for six years, while also establishing himself as one of Hollywoodas top stuntmen in order to pay the bills, with Maggie acting as his on-set coach. As Valentin raises Maggie, she forces him to grow up, too. But, their unique and offbeat family is threatened when Maggie’s birth mom shows up out of the blue, and Valentin realises that he’s in danger of losing his daughter – and his best friend.
