Paloma Ferrer and her family move to Madrid in search of a prosperous future only to become embroiled in the country's bloody civil war. Paloma's parents, distressed over her two older brothers involved in the resistance movement, virtually ignore the quiet little girl. Teased and tormented by her older brother and sister, Paloma quickly learns she must fend for herself.
