Benjamin's woman
(La Mujer de Benjamin)

Seventeen-year-old Natividad is bored with her life at home and in her village. She spends her time between the tense relationship with her mother and a flirt with Leandro
and she dreams of travelling around the world.
Benjamin, fiftyish and fat, is considered to be the village fool. He lives under the heel of his sister Micaela. He is in love with Natividad and friends of his incite him to kidnap the young girl. Benjamin keeps Natividad in his home hoping to seduce her. The girl adapts to the situation and plays cannily with the power she has over the devoted Benjamin and Micaela’s secrets. As time goes on Natividad dominates the life of the home and the store owned by the siblings. Leandro’s sudden interference in the triangle unleashes a violent episode which determines the fate of Natividad and restores the image of Benjamin in the eyes of the villagers.
