In the desolated, windy countryside of 1950’s Southern Portugal, rich families control the land with the blessing of the church and support of the police. Meanwhile, the poor die of hunger for lack of work and bread. When one of them, Antonio Palma, joins a group of smugglers to save his loved ones, he finds himself the target of the most powerful landowner of the region.
