Hercules, a poor individual earns his living as a walking street ad, carrying a gigantic advertising sign on his shoulders. His biggest concern is his daughter Leonor, who helps at home by working as a seamstress. Afflicted by the economic situation, Hercules gets a job as a casino watchman. There he must face a trio of mobsters and a kleptomaniac baroness who tries to seduce him with her vampire airs and whom Hercules ends up falling in love with.

With clear stylistic references to the spaghetti western, the film tells a story set in the Chilean countryside in a bygone era. The script, which tries to offer a folkloric costumbrista picture through an anecdote of love and revenge, is primary and unsubstantial. In many moments the film turns out to be comic when it is supposed to be dramatic and vice versa.

Rosita, a poor and naive girl, becomes entangled in a delicate love affair, which forces her to seek the spiritual help of the kind and ingenious Padre Pitillo, a country priest who does not censure the passion that has ruined poor Rosita, but puts things in their place, in his own particular way.
