Synopsis

Ángel, a soft spoken withdrawn man, lives an isolated life in a rustic farmhouse in the woodlands around Segovia. His only company is his brash, domineering mother, Martina. Ángel is an "alimañero", a hunter in charge of killing wolves and other animals of prey in order to protect deer in a hunting wild reserve. To survive, he resorts to furtive deception of the local civil guards hunting the wild game and selling the meat and skins for profit. During the autumn hunting season, the local Governor comes to hunt stag with his entourage taking base at Ángel's rustic house. The Governor has special affection towards Martina, who was his wet nurse.

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.
