A soldier’s heart is torn apart by shrapnel from a land mine. His life is saved by one of the cardiovascular surgeons from the medical team holding the world record for most open-heart operations. The soldier is forced to retire from the army but, inspired by his love for his new wife and their unborn child, he battles to earn a living. Meanwhile, the surgeon’s wife is diagnosed with cardiac arrhythmia. The pulse of these different characters draws an electrocardiogram of the nation, Colombia, consecrated a century ago to the Sacred Heart of Jesus in an attempt to save it from ongoing war.

n soldado herido en el corazón por una esquirla de una mina antipersonal, es salvado por un cirujano cardiovascular que hace parte del grupo médico que más operaciones de corazón abierto, por trauma, ha realizado en el mundo. El soldado es expulsado del ejército, pero estimulado por el amor a su nueva esposa y al hijo que esperan, lucha por ganarse la vida. Mientras tanto, a la esposa del cirujano le es diagnosticada una arritmia cardiaca. El pulso de estos personajes dibuja el electrocardiograma de un país, Colombia, que para salvarlo de la guerra, hace un siglo fue consagrado al Sagrado Corazón de Jesús.
