When embattled painter Francisco Jose de Goya teaches a young girl to see as an artist, he regains the strength to carry on his own work. In late 18th century Spain, Goya's art is questioned by the king's inquisistor. After his son Javier covers for him, Goya retreats to his country home, accompanied by Javier, Leocadia and Rosarita. Though Javier worries about his father's grip on reality, Goya's spirit is refreshed by the time he spends teaching Rosarita about art.
