Pedro and Leonor have a disturbed relationship as a couple. They live together, on the countryside, but they start to grow apart from each other, thanks to Sunday’s church. While Peter doesn’t care for religion and actually likes to mock it, Leonor is getting more religious and grow fond with the priest. His jealous rises, also with help from church’s clerk, and Peter decides to take action with his barehands.

The anniversary, celebrating the thirty years of the marriage of Francisco and Leonor Teixeira, celebrated on their family farm. It is time to party and everyone party with the Teixeira's. Well, almost everyone. Ricardo, the youngest son, does not speak with his father for five years.
