While the Portuguese Army and volunteers, guided by English officers, beat Massena's Army back at Buçaco, five French soldiers on their escape route come upon an isolated house, where they rob food, and rape the young woman there. When José, a rude mountaineer ('malhadeiro'), returns to his devastated home, he engages in a deadly hunt.
