A village girl with ambitions has schemed and connived to get to the big cities in Colombia. Though she is beautiful and finds plenty of romance, nothing quite works out. She even tries prostitution for a while. Eventually, she decides that her discontent has nothing to do with the city and that she's a country girl at heart. She hitches a ride in the empty trailer of a tractor-trailer truck going back to her village. There she finds a dejected American man (Stuart Whitman), whose wife has just died. The two of them converse and get to know one another and even make love. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi
