Set in a small Spanish village in 1845, a parish priest feeds a wounded man and binds his wounds. The man is captured the next day by soldiers but entrusts his wife and children to the priest. The wife is dead but the priest rears the children until, 12 years later, they are reclaimed and he is rewarded. (PB)
