Early version of the life of Agustina of Aragon, a Spanish national heroine.

Benedito the barber, mocked by everyone in the village, lathers the head of a blind customer just as the man regains his sight. Benedito becomes a celebrity, and everyone seeks his services.

Unjustly accused of theft, the noble Raimundo is forced to leave his paternal home. A new incident, caused by the ambition of his brother José, causes Raimundo to be disowned by his girlfriend María and by his father, the just and strict Don Pepe. The only one who believes in Raimundo is his mother, Dona Lupita, a woman who suffers deeply because of the wrong decisions of her children.
