The young trapeze artist Alma is part of the show of a miserable traveling circus. In an act of desperation, Alma commits incest with her father, a sick clown obsessed with the woman who abandoned them. Determined to have his child, Alma leaves the circus and joins a group of preachers led by Refugio, a woman who performs puppet shows with biblical passages in poor neighborhoods.

A hen-pecked husband, so timid that he doesn’t even dare to drive a car, embarks on an affair with a much younger woman (played by Lisa Owen), who lives in the same apartment building as him and his wife. Eventually, he finds that the young woman is just as demanding as his difficult wife.
