As the bus crosses the country, Maria, who taught adults to read, returns in memory to Olhos d'Água, the backland settlement in Paraíba where she once lived. Her thoughts drift from France to the north-east, from teaching nuns in Algeria to a stranger met in Mexico, and to those who sheltered and helped her during the military years, the story of a woman who refused to submit.
