Pueblito brasileño Bahia, en los años veinte. La bella Floripides Guimaraes, más conocida como Doña Flor, está casada con el pícaro y mujeriego Valdomiro Santos Guimaraes, alias Vadinho.

Cuando Vadinho muera de un infarto en pleno carnaval, Doña Flor sentirá que su vida (sexual) ha quedado vacía. La solitaria viuda acepta casarse con el respetable y pulcro Dr. Teodoro Madureira, un hombre metódico y responsable. Pero, pese a ser un ciudadano modelo, el nuevo esposo no logra cubrir el vacío pasional dejado por el ardiente Vadinho. Doña Flor reconoce que su nuevo marido nunca le podrá satisfacer en el campo del deseo como su primer marido. Pero, de manera sobrenatural, Doña Flor verá la oportunidad de satisfacer su nostalgia sexual: Vadinho ha regresado al mundo de los vivos, solo visible a los ojos de ella... y dispuesto a saciar los deseos de la apasionada viuda.
