Cuando quiero llorar no lloro (also known as Los Victorinos) was a Spanish language TV series produced by Colombia's R.T.I.
In 1963, a renowned mentalist named Norman Reinhart (Omar Sanchez) visits Colombia where his mental powers are broadcast through the radio and television.
The Perdomo family has two girls, Carola and Maria Eugenia, named after the wife and daughter of President Gustavo Rojas Pinilla, respectively.
Ceferino (Alejandro Muñoz), Victorino's father, left his family to seek his fortune in the eastern plains and then Rubelia married Facundo (Álvaro Rodriguez), a worker who beats her when he's drunk and with whom she has two more children, Mireya and Guillermo.
The wealthy and handsome Victorino Umana (David Guerrero) studies in the best schools and graduates from the best university, travelling the world, going from one party to another party and wasting money on luxuries together with his best friend Juan Andres Alzate 'Juancho' (Andrés Marulanda) and his cousin Ana Maria Londoño Koppel (Alexandra Restrepo).
A typical rich kid, Victorino gets into trouble and scandals, marries his cousin Ana Maria, who is unfaithful to him with his friend 'Juancho' Alzate and, through him, starts doing business with 'The Southerner', a drug trafficker who has a pilot named Daniel Schumacher, who becomes their intermediary.
Since his childhood, Victorino Perdomo (Ricardo Gómez) has great art activities, and is admitted into a seminary because his father does not have money to pay a private school.
Victorino cannot cope with the mistreatment and abuse that his stepfather Facundo inflicts on his mother and his sister Mireya, so he murders him with a stolen gun.
Victorino Umana, accompanied by 'Juancho' and Schumacher, head to Korean Bank to negotiate with the manager a loan to cover the loss he suffered in a Mexican drug shipment.
Victorino Umana remains unharmed and is interrogated by the police, when he denies that Schumacher had met his now dead namesake (whom he knew and had tried to meet).
Victorino bursts into tears and, disillusioned, takes a Walther PPK that Schumacher had given her and commits suicide by shooting himself in the mouth, in the precise moment when Ana Maria returns apparently regretting what she has said, but too late to prevent the tragedy.
