After years living and studying in Caracas, lawyer Santos Luzardo returns to the "llanos" to visit the properties his family abandoned long ago. He finds the region in the hands of the evil and mysterious Doña Barbara, a formidable woman rumored to be a witch. Santos searches for his only relative, his cousin Lorenzo Barquero, but finds him transformed into human wreckage, reduced to living in a shack with his half-wild daughter, Marisela. Marisela is the result of an ill-fated liaison between Lorenzo and Doña Barbara. Like all of her former lovers, Lorenzo has been driven to madness, alcoholism and misery. Santos attempts to rehabilitate Lorenzo and educate Marisela, who falls in love with him. However, so has her mother, and Santos will have a tough time keeping Doña Barbara at bay.
