A violent man tortures his family until one day they become exasperated and decide to kill him. His daughter, who was away when the murder was committed, quickly understands what happened. She decides to marry the judge who handles the case. Although he has discovered the truth, he will not make it public for his wife’s sake. His successor considers the case is now closed, but the protagonists keep living in fear.
