Spoilers ahead
Vitório Palestrina, portrayed by José Mojica Marins, is a wealthy playboy in a small village who spends his days sleeping with, abusing, and discarding women. He lures a young woman named Silvia and visits a brutal act of violence upon her: he rapes her and bites off one nipple, keeping the severed part in a glass case as a trophy. When the town learns of his actions, the response is paradoxical: the public admires his audacity, while Silvia is shunned and tormented by the very people who should support her. The sense of justice in the village feels skewed, and the social double standards are laid bare as the controversy unfolds.
