Juan Sayago was released after eighteen years in prison for murdering Raul Trueba, a man who challenged him only to get in the duel in which he fairly lost his life.

But the sons of Trueba are unwilling to forget their father’s death so easily; both have vowed to kill Sayago as soon as he puts one foot in town.

Director
Arturo Ripstein
Arturo Ripstein y Rosen (born December 13, 1943 in Mexico City) is a Mexican film director who got his break into movies working as an uncredited assistant director for Luis Buñuel. In 1965, he directed his first feature, Tiempo de Morir. Written by Carlos Fuentes and Gabriel García Márquez, in which he began a tradition of making independent films written by high-profile Latin-American authors.
Many of his films are shot in tawdry interiors, with bleak brown color schemes, and seedy pathetic characters who manage to achieve a hint of pathos and dignity.Wall
