Venezuela, the mid-nineteenth century. The polarization between liberals and conservatives marked the political agenda.

Школьный учитель литературы Луис Эскрива прощается со старшеклассниками, которые уезжают на лето. Когда он едет домой, то замечает на обочине двух «голосующих» тинэйджеров из класса — парня и девчонку и подбирает их, приглашает на ужин и привозит к себе. Он живет на окраине города в уединенном замке вместе со своим наперсником и слугой Хайме, с которым его связывают более чем странные отношения. Учитель начинает сексуально унижать и мучать и девушку, и парня. Так начинается жестокая игра, где игроки меняются местами и в конце концов оказываются в патовой ситуации. Девушка оказывается не так уж невинна, как кажется поначалу.

Teresita, the only daughter to a wealthy couple, begins to be troubled by loud sounds and visions of a tall man in black walking towards her menacingly. Soon she becomes plagued by strange physical symptoms, visions of arms extending from the walls to grab at her...and sometimes she gets violent. A priest is called in to try and wrench the devil from her body.

Arturo, who has just turned 15, is in love with 13-year-old Paloma. In a moment of passion at a ski lodge while on a field trip to the mountains with their schoolmates, he gets her pregnant. Afraid of what may happen to them if their strict (but somewhat inattentive) parents or any of the rather straight-laced teachers at their Catholic school find out about the baby, Arturo and Paloma turn to their young friends and relatives for help instead. This proves to be something of a coming-of-age for everyone involved as they try to help the young couple get married, conceal the pregnancy from their parents, and prepare for the birth. The many adventures they have while doing this, while often amusing, help drive home to them that the old wives' tale about storks bringing babies is just a myth (hence the title), and pregnancy and childbirth are actually very serious matters.
