Synopsis
Don Rafael Brull, the son of landed Spanish aristocrats, falls in love with Leonora, the daughter of one of his family's tenants. Doņa Bernada, who is ambitious for her son, breaks up the romance by dispossessing Leonora's family. Leonora goes to Paris, where she becomes an opera singer; Rafael stays at home and runs for public office, becoming engaged to Remedios. Leonora returns home for a visit, and Rafael saves her life during a flash flood. Their passion reawakens, but Doņa Bernada persuades Rafael to renounce his love. Years pass. Rafael and Leonora meet only once again, each having made his own life: Leonora is a world-famous opera singer, and Rafael is prominent in public office.
