Yolanda, a cabaret singer, brings heroin to her lover who drops dead of an overdose. To escape from the police, the singer looks for refuge in a local convent. The Mother Superior, a fan of Yolanda, rapturously greets her. The mission of the order, called the Humiliated Redeemers (Redentoras humilladas), is to offer shelter and redemption to fallen women. The convent once was a bustling haven for prostitutes, drug addicts and murderers, but it is now in disrepair. The order is facing serious financial hardships as their prime financial supporter, the vain and greedy Marchioness (La Marquesa) has decided to discontinue the convent's annuity under the pretense of economizing. She feels less affinity with the sisters than did her recently deceased husband, who set up a fund in gratitude. The convent had taken in their wayward daughter, Virginia, who subsequently became a nun and ran off to Africa, only to be eaten by cannibals.

Luis, an unmarried, middle-aged, Barcelona businessman, carries out his mother’s dying wish to be buried in the family crypt in Segovia. He has her bones exhumed from a pantheon in Barcelona and heads by car to the Castilian city. In the middle of a lonely road, he stops and gets out of the car, recalling the same landscape at a moment in his childhood when he was being brought up to spend part of his summer vacation with his maternal grandmother in Segovia during the fateful summer of 1936. He sees his parents before him, trying to soothe him after a bout of carsickness. Just days before they were to pick him up, a military uprising cut Segovia off from the Republican part of Spain and Luis found himself trapped in the menacing environment of his mother’s Nationalist relatives for the duration of the war.

María uses to sing in a night club along with her friends (who have a rock band named "Los Yakis Voladores"), and enjoys the night with them. One of her friends, Ernesto (Enrique Guzmán), is in love with her, although she doesn't seem to share the same feelings towards him. In fact, her multiple existential questions and a strange emptyness she feels in her life make her suddenly decide entering in a convent as a novice, breaking Ernesto's heart. However, with her happy, open and rebel nature, she doesn't seem to accustom herself to the life at the convent, and she has bigger problems with the novice headmistress, who uses to chastise her trying to lead her in the right direction. At the convent, which also works as a hospital for children, she meets a doctor (Manuel Gil) and she doesn't along with him because of the contrast between their personalities, although they have a mutual liking and respect in their own way.
