In 1920s Spain, Alba and Gimena are prostitutes dreaming of starting new lives in Argentina who steal from high-class parties to finance their new lives. One night, an altercation with Gimena's lover, Pedro, leads to her being shot and Pedro being shot with his own gun after fighting with Alba. She is accused of double murder by the police, but a corrupt cop offers to let her go if she robs a safe at the Madrid telephone exchange. To do so, she pulls off a con job using the name Lidia and flirts with a manager to get a job there, where she runs into Francisco, now the company director and son-in-law of the owner. A flashback to 10 years earlier shows Alba and Francisco as young teens on a freight train excitedly going to Madrid. Once there, they are separated when Alba's suitcase is stolen and she chases after the thief. She takes what she thinks is her suitcase from another man and is taken away by the police. Other new employees at the exchange include small-town girl Marga, who misses her grandmother in the village, and the savvy upper-class Carlota, whose father refuses to allow her to work. Working mother Ángeles takes pride in herself as the most experienced and knowledgable telephone operator, but her husband doesn't want her to work anymore.
