Sinopsis: El asesinato de tres hombres, el esposo y los dos hijos de Filomena, provoca en ella y en sus tres hijas el deseo de venganza, que ejecutan ellas mismas. In Bahia, a woman spurns a suitor she ha rejected thirty years before. In response, he and his sons sadistically kill her husband and sons. She gathers her three daughters and swears revenge, sending each to hire a killer who is to bring her the head of his victim. Maria Francisca is to hire Zé das Cobras, who eats snakes for courage and will not talk directly to women. Maria Rosa is to hire Chief Tenório, a righteous policeman currently on the hunt for a mad dog. Maria Pia is to hire Jesuíno Cruz, whom she must first free from prison, and who cuts his victim's in half so that God and Satan get their share. Will the daughters succeed? Will justice be done?
