This harrowing film involves a  daughter Maria, her mother Rosa and the rocky relationship with the abusive father figure.  We learn that the father had refused to allow his daughter to get an education and she is in a dead end job wanting nothing more than to be a mother, having just become pregnant.  

The film slowly turns round on the path to redemption as  Maria achieves some happiness from an unexpected quarter.
