Márcia e Beto buscam isolamento, mas encontram tentação.
Set against the scorching, beautiful backdrop of the Brazilian sertão (northeastern backlands), tells the story of Ritinha (played by rising child star Mariana Rios ), a lonely girl living on a failing farm with her widowed father, Severino (the late, great Milton Moraes ).
The official plot of A Menina e o Cavalo centers on a young woman named Márcia, who is plagued by uncontrollable sexual urges. On the verge of her wedding, she decides to postpone the marriage, much to the despair of her father. Seeking a retreat to reflect on her life, Márcia goes with her fiancé, Beto, to her father's isolated ranch.
Within the context of Brazilian cinema, the depiction of bestiality remains an extremely taboo subject. By making it the central plot point, A Menina e o Cavalo deliberately transgressed societal norms to attract a niche audience curious about the forbidden. This tactic reflected the era's declining economic conditions, which pushed production companies to seek ever more sensationalist content to ensure commercial returns.
The narrative follows (played by Aryadne de Lima), a young woman experiencing intense intimacy issues and nymphomaniac urges that threaten her upcoming wedding to her fiancé, Beto (Antônio Rodi). Desperate to clear her mind and postpone the wedding pressure from her wealthy father, Dr. Ribeiro, Márcia retreats to the family’s rural countryside estate.
Her life changes forever when she encounters a wild, untamed horse. The creature is everything she wishes to be: fierce, independent, and uncapturable. What unfolds is a delicate, almost wordless dance of trust. Vera does not seek to "break" the horse in the traditional sense; instead, she seeks communion. She spends weeks earning its trust, sharing silent afternoons in the fields, and creating a language of mutual respect.
