Handsome Jeronimo Rugera is hired to tutor the rich heiress, Josephe Asteron. They fall in love, yet the Catholic Church forbids their relationship, and Josephe is hidden in a convent. When the church discovers she is pregnancy, Josephe is sentenced to death by decapitation. Jeronimo tracks her down, yet is prisoned before he can rescue her. When fate intervenes in the form of a massive earthquake, the two lovers have no idea what is in store for them. Sanders-Brahms uses a voice-over of the first and final sentences of the book, placing them in the beginning and end of the film.<ref name=Martinp671/>
