Norteña. Memorias del comienzo es la historia de un enamoramiento: el de Julieta Venegas con la música. Criada en Tijuana, en ese paisaje singular donde el desierto se encuentra con el mar y una frontera divide —o junta— dos países y dos formas de vida, Julieta recorre los primeros años que la formaron como artista: cómo aprendió a escuchar, cómo aprendió a tocar, cómo fue encontrando su propio sonido. La música llega primero como herencia familiar, como alegría compartida, como el idioma que su familia ya hablaba antes que ella.
