Juan Encarnación was once the most feared man; a man of few words and great actions, most of them with machetes. Everything changed when he met the love of his life, Pura. She converted him into a quiet family man. His idyllic life is destroyed when, bewitched by her beauty, capricious Walker Jr. kidnaps Pura. Carrying his baby daughter on his back and with machete in hand, Encarnación will do whatever it takes to rescue her.

Juan Encarnación era antes el hombre más temido; de pocas palabras y grandes acciones, la mayoría de ellas a machetazos. Todo cambió cuando conoció al amor de su vida, Pura. Ella lo convirtió en un hombre tranquilo de familia. Su vida idílica es destruida cuando, embrujado por su belleza, el caprichoso Walker Jr. secuestra a Pura. Cargando a su hija bebé en su espalda y con machete en mano, Encarnación hará lo que sea por recuperarla.
