Her daughter, spirited single mom Maria (Barrios' real-life daughter, Maria Leon, who was lauded for her perf in Benito Zambrano's 'The Sleeping Voice'), likewise introduces herself to the camera, as does Carmina's ne'er-do-well, heavy-drinking husband, Antonio (Paco Casaus, a family friend). The slim plotline, which takes a backseat to character observation, recounts the story of Carmina's attempts to make up for the money lost after 80 hams were stolen from her bar. Flashbacks recap brief, telling events in Carmina's life, showing her defiance and cunning at sidestepping misfortune. When a debt collector comes, she hits herself over the head with a bottle and accuses him of attacking her. She's taken to the hospital after accidentally drinking a douche solution. According to the helmer, some of these things actually took place, but he's coy about which ones.
