In 2005 Clara Morales begins a rising career in real estate by encouraging risky loans to her clients in order to afford houses above their means. Loans that she didn’t fully understand. She even advises her father to take such a loan. With the onset of the 2008 housing market crash, Clara's father's house goes into foreclosure and Clara must now work to save it. This results in a strain on her relationship with her father, leading him to ignore her regarding matters of his health. She must also win back the trust of her neighbors who have been negatively effected by subprime loans. Meanwhile, Clara is in a fierce competition with a coworker to hold onto her job in a downsizing workplace. One positive aspect to her life is a burgeoning romance with her bank representative, the handsome and caring Carlos. However, with the eviction date right around the corner, Clara gives into the continuing stress at work and makes a reckless play to acquire a new client in the hopes of making a large bonus and paying off the home. This backfires and she loses her job and her new relationship becomes even more complicated. Saving the home seems more impossible than ever. Ultimately, Clara and her father realize that although they have made some bad decisions along the way, they need to put the past behind them, and they enact a final and desperate plan to save their home -- they will lock themselves in, despite a court order to vacate. A heartfelt story about realizing how personal choices and family can be stronger than any force working against you.
