In a small provincial town ruled by hypocrisy and silence, teenage Fortunata—sensitive and passionate about books—lives with a mother who appears caring but exploits her for prostitution. Surrounded by complicit neighbors and masked respectability, her life unfolds in secrecy until a parish priest enters the house, seemingly determined to save her.
