A young woman who has been promised in marriage to a man elopes with another. The eloping woman is an orphan whose parents were killed in an ambush motivated by an extramarital affair which I am not sure I fully understood. Her aunt gives chase to the couple, aided by her employees.
Coming across as poorly conceived, especially in its conception of characters and their behavior, this film reportedly wasn't properly scripted, having been mostly improvised by its director. The result is far from brilliant or even entertaining, but, at least for Brazilians like me, makes for a curious viewing. The arid landscapes of Northeastern Brazil, as captured by its competent cinematography, are aesthetically pleasing enough.
