Based on a true story, a 13 year-old street urchin makes a living singing tangos at the Buenos Aires Central Station. He imitates a famous Polish tango singer, Roberto Goyeneche so the people refer to him as "El Polaquito" (the Little Polish singer). El Polaquito meets "Pelu", a young prostitute who also works at the Central Station, and he falls immediately in love with her. He tries to rescue "Pelu" from the mafia that exploits both of them. The behavior of El Polaquito confronts him with "Rengo", the station mafia boss, who, in collusion with the police, begins to keep an eye on El Polaquito trying to convince him otherwise and avoid the relationship with "Pelu". El Polaquito continues to undertake a dauntless fight against the mafia, without regard to the risk or consequences, trying to win "Pelu's" love.
