A Escrava Isaura

The beautiful light-skinned slave Isaura resists the harrassment of her newly-married owner, Lencio, son of the man who harrassed her mother until she died.Lencio sends Isaura to the fields to force her to yield, but Isaura flees instead with her father to Recife. There Isaura meets and falls in love with a well-to-do young man, lvaro, but at a ball, she is recognized, and Lencio takes her back to his farm, and orders her to marry Belchior, the gardener.But Lencio is practically bankrupt, so lvaro purchases his debts, freeing Isaura and leading Lencio to commit suicide.
