On coming back to the imposing but decadent farmhouse he inherited, after an extenuous journey on horseback, Antonio finds out that his wife died in labor. Confined to this desolate and unproductive property in the company of his demented motherin-law and numerous slaves, he marries his dead wife’s young niece, a child of 12. A restless soul, he returns to his expeditions trading slaves and cattle, and leaves the child wife behind. The loneliness of the big house in the rugged landscape mirrors that of its inhabitants. Each one has been displaced from his original home and forced into co-existence. The undercurrents of violence and prejudice fuel the impending tragedy which, in turn, is an ambiguous announcement of the winds of change.
