Dédié à Volta Grande (Minas Gerais), la ville natale du réalisateur, le film débute dans une école rurale où une maîtresse raconte à ses élèves ce récit : la fille du "colonel" Januário, propriétaire d'une vaste fazenda, vit une idylle avec un jeune homme. Pendant que le "colonel" prépare son élection à la mairie, les deux amants disparaissent. L'accordéoniste de la région, également amoureux de la jeune femme, finit par les retrouver. Januário marie les deux fiancés. Durant la cérémonie, l'accordéoniste, soupirant infortuné, s'éclipse. Selon la légende, on peut l'entendre, de temps en temps, jouer une mélodie nostalgique à travers les champs de canne à sucre.
