Quote:
The mayor is willing to solve the problem that Don Calixto, a powerful landowner, has with a peasant who fights for the land that has belonged to his ancestors and that his children will inherit. He is the son of the foreman of the hacienda and plans to marry an unrecognized daughter of Don Calixto. His dream is to build the house on that family land.
