Bárbara is an attractive woman raised in the thick jungle by a band of Venezuelan smugglers. She was madly in love with the handsome Asdrubal until tragedy smashed everything. When dome bandits rape her and butcher her beau, a mad desire for vengeance against men overtakes her.
Bárbara seduces the wealthy landowner Lorenzo Barquero and steals his
fortune. Grief-stricken, he descends into misery and alcoholism. Their
destructive relationship produces a lovely daughter, Marisela, who is
forced to live in despair with her tormented father.
Fifteen years later, Lorenzo’s dashing cousin Santos Luzardo opens old
wounds. This ambitious doctor from Caracas returns to claim ownership
of the family land. He soon discovers Doña Bárbara controls the area
with an iron glove, using sorcery and seduction to force her will on
the locals.
Santos refuses to surrender and fights to save his cousin and educate
young Marisela. Bárbara falls in love with Santos. As a result of her
love, she is driven to do anything, as
long as it means that Santos will be by her side.
