Rosario lives alone in the slums (barrio) with her dog Ringo. She always wanted to be a truck driver but her mother never let her. One day she bought three miraculous prints from the " Lady in Black", who was initiated into the mysteries of "Sorte". (Sorte: A Rain Forest area in Venezuela where, priests from different religions worship Indian and African mythical entities). With the first print the Negro Primero saves her from the street gangs. With the second one, Maria Lionza makes the captain of police, who wanted to displace her from her home, falls in love with her. And with the third one, José Gregorio Hernández, doctor to the poor, rescues her from the debris of her destroyed home after it collapse from a storm. Rosario awakes after eating the stamp in front of the gangs and with her market bag scares them away. Rosario still lives in the same barrio with her dog Ringo.
