Plot
As Aloysius lies on his deathbed, he summons Stanne, the wealthiest farmer in the region, and Johanna, a stern-faced widow, to his side. Two decades earlier, when Johanna's daughter died tragically, didn't the legal inquiry conclude that the girl no longer wished to be with him? Despite Aloysius's heartfelt pleas, Stanne and Johanna stubbornly refuse to reconcile, parting ways bitterly. Louis, Stanne's son, who once loved Julia, a captivating yet somewhat promiscuous redhead, loses interest in her upon meeting the charming Lodia, Johanna's daughter born twenty years after the loss of her elder sister. Louis and Lodia endeavor to gain approval for their love from their parents.
