Maravillas, une adolescente madrilène vit avec son père, un photographe veuf et sans travail. Afin d'assouvir ses fantasmes sexuels, ce dernier lui dérobe son argent. Fort heureusement, la jeune fille peut compter sur la protection de ses parrains - trois Juifs séfarades - qui ne cessent de la gâter. Mais, celui qu'elle préfère est l'oncle Salomon qui, « comme dans un conte de fées, l'a délivrée de la peur en lui remettant un anneau le jour de sa première communion, et en lui demandant d'oser marcher sur le bord de la terrasse qui surplombe la rue. » C'est, précisément, lors d'une des démonstrations de l'oncle Salomon qu'elle fait la connaissance de Chessman, un garçon dont elle s'amourache. Celui-ci lui présente sa bande de copains avec qui elle va commettre de petits méfaits. Plus tard, Maravillas est impliquée dans le vol d'une émeraude et de complicité criminelle.
