During the turbulent years of post-Franco fascist regime young spanish boy Paco after leaving the army tries to find his way by marrying poor peasant girl Luisa(Victoria Abril). Since her house is crowded with old people he finds accommodation in a flat owned by blonde Trini and quickly she seduces him, promising him freedom if he can give her some cash to escape her troubles and leave with him out of the country. Torn between love for Luisa and Trini, he ultimately succumbs to Trini's temptation, steal life savings from Luisa and kills her. Then he boards on a train with Trini but is soon arrested by police. People call this film noir, and although there are some features of it, it is ultimately classic piece of spanish nonsense. But it is easy to watch and have some striking set-pieces.
