Luis Pardo is a bandit who robs travelers on the roads and has a talent for singing. He is the terror of the local landowners. After his raids cease, Pardo takes refuge in a cabin where he meets a peasant woman who treats him gently. Attracted to her, he swears to abandon his past life and turn away from crime. As a couple, they live a happy time and the beginning of the former bandit's rehabilitation. But it is too late, since shortly after discovering love, the prefect's troops kill Luis Pardo.
