Marimar

Marimar is a beautiful young girl who lives by the sea with her elderly grandparents. Because of her family's poverty, she is forced to steal food from the estate of the wealthy Santibanez family. Marimar is caught by the foreman, and when she resists his advances, Sergio, the spoiled son of the house, comes to her rescue. Realizing that Marimar has fallen in love with him, Sergio gets an idea. His parents are withholding half of his inheritance until he is married, and he can use Marimar to both placate and shame them. Not only will he receive his entire inheritance, but he can humiliate his parents by making "the dirty girl from the beach" their daughter-in-law. (Verleiher-Text)
