Synopsis

Jorge is a young man from Lima who does not like living in Peru, arguing that there are no opportunities in this country and that everything is not going well here, so he wants to live in the United States. Despite having a job offer, his visa is refused at the American embassy for the second time and he goes into despair. However, he meets López, a friend from his school who tells him that he is going to live in the United States because he married a young woman from the North American country. He suggests that she also do that as it is the easiest way to go there legally and recommends that she visit Cuzco due to the high influx of tourists. Upon arrival, Jorge meets with Querubín, his best friend and who had lived there for several years dedicating himself to crafts and being married to his wife Andrea. In addition, he befriends Sublime, Querubín's brother-in-law who was a city policeman. Pretending to be a tour guide, Jorge meets Shirley, an American who was visiting Cuzco looking to contact the members of the Intergalactic Circle, an association led by the Master, who had the idea that the constructions of the Inca civilization were made by extraterrestrials and the young American espoused these beliefs. After attending the meeting, some tourists comment that they saw UFOs on the Inca trail almost reaching Machu Picchu, so both should go to the citadel. Then, Jorge pretends to be an alien named Arrech to conquer Shirley, achieving it in that form. However, the American becomes pregnant as a result of their encounter and he must find a way to explain all the lies he told her, even if he runs the risk of losing her.[2]
