 Celeste is a poor girl living with her mother Lucia. Lucia has cancer,
and although she tries to hide it from Celeste, Celeste discovers it.
Celeste works in a plant nursery, and one day, while transferring
plants, she meets Franco, whose car is stuck and he needs help.
She
helps him and he invites her to coffee. As they talk Franco tells
Celeste the legend about the sun and moon (In Spanish Sol y Luna): St.
Franciscus once gave all he had to 'Brothers sun and Sisters moon'; he
thought that names have no importance and therefore he called the men
Sol and the women Luna. After telling her the legend, Franco asks her
name and she answers: Luna. Without knowing each other's true names,
they set to meet in the same place the next day. Meanwhile, Lucia gets
worse and is dying. Franco and Celeste continue to meet and they plant
a tree together. They swear that as long as it lives, they will love
each other. They set to meet the next day and tell their real names.
That same night, Lucia dies in Celeste's arms. While Celeste mourns in
her house, Franco thinks Celeste stood him up, and he pulls the tree
out of the ground.
Aida, Lucia's best friend, offers Celeste to move
and live with her in order to leave the house, which is so full of
memories. With a small number of personal things, Celeste comes into
the castle of the Visconti family (Actually it's Ferrero, but all the
family's fortune comes from the mistress side) The mistress, Teresa,
who needs a new maid, thinks that Aida brought her a new maid, and she
sends Celeste to put on a uniform. She is so manipulative, that neither
Celeste nor Aida can tell her she is wrong. Celeste becomes the maid
then, and almost everyone dislikes her. Teresa is a very cold woman and
she treats her badly. Enzo, Teresa's son, is 'attracted' to Celeste and
tries to rape her many times. Rita, the daughter, likes Celeste and
they become friends. Celica, the matron, is practically a witch and she
also treats her badly. Only with Leandro, Teresa's husband (who is also
Aida's brother) is Celeste able to create a kind relationship. Then
comes the last member of the family: After a few days the twin brother
of Enzo comes home, and Celeste finds out he's no other than
Franco...at first they are both angry at each other, but then they
reconcile and fall in love again. But, not one of them knows the secret
that Lucia kept all her life.
