The farmers of Argentina¬¥s endless pampas can be as rough and bristly as the arid landscape that is their home. Circumstances force them to share and help one another out. But sometimes emotions can erupt like a summer storm. When strong, silent Poldo feels that his more exuberant fellow farmer Pichón has insulted little Nati, his mute daughter, Poldo breaks off all contact with him. Poldo also forbids his wife to see Pichón, not suspecting that she and Pichón are carrying on a passionate relationship behind his back. Nati knows what is going on, and so does Pichón’ son, Nati’ only friend. Things come to a head when Poldo finds drawings made by his daughter which depict what she has seen, but which he misunderstands for something infinitely more reprehensible. Nothing can keep him from exacting revenge on Pichón. The confrontation takes a completely different turn, however, and the explosion of rage is only a prelude to an even greater tragedy that will engulf all survivors.
