Plot
Ramon's father has a small farm and like all the other poor farmers around, he owes money to a rich rancher, landgrabber John Barrett. Ramon embarks to deliver the due money to Barrett but along the way he is ambushed, robbed and beaten unconscious. As soon as he can, he gets to Barrett after all. Begging Barrett for more time, he recognises one of the robbers among Barrett's employees. He thinks Barrett will help him now, only Barrett doesn't. Instead Ramon is tortured until he can escape.
