Somewhere in the spanish country, in the 60s. Paco and his wife Régula are very poor. They work as tenant farmers for a very wealthy landowner. They have 3 children. One is backward. The others can not got to school because the master "needs" their work. When Regula's brother is fired from where he has worked for 61 years, he settles down at their little place... An attack against the archaism of the spanish country of the 60s. 残忍的影片，丑陋的人性。现实到骨子里。沉闷。 一家西班牙农民生活在地主的管制之下，他们生活的宗旨就是委曲求全和听从指令。命运的终结是反常之外的粗暴虐劣，但这个令人心凉的结局却也象征了刑判的破裂。
