Estela is fat, sexually voracious and marked by a life of abuse and neglect. She runs a plant nursery whose secrets have passed down through the women of her family, and there, listening to the songs of Estela Raval, she becomes a killer as ruthless as she is outrageous. With the earthworms as her closest allies, she brews potions, remedies and poisons, and finds other strange methods, to take her revenge. Then a policeman comes to the nursery and must choose between giving in to her charms and investigating the crimes committed there.
