In this romantic drama, popular action hero Valentin Trujillo plays Pedro, a young seminarian who, instead of being ordained directly to the diaconate and priesthood, is sent to his turbulent home to test his vows for a year. In addition to confrontations with local bullies which require him to make use of his fists, Pedro faces temptation in two forms: the conscienceless lust of the ranch boss' new wife, and his tender love for the boss' daughter, a love which the two have shared (chastely) since childhood.
