Durante la revolución mexicana, un grupo de valientes campesinos, conocidos como los "Leones de San Pablo" se unen al ejército de Pancho Villa. Después de algunas batallas, con más derrotas que victorias, el grupo original es reducido a dos: Tiburcio Maya y el joven "Becerrillo". Una epidemia de viruela se desata entre la tropa y "Becerrillo" cae enfermo. Villa ordena a Tiburcio matar al joven e incinerar su cuerpo. Desencantado, Tiburcio abandona la revolución y regresa a su pueblo.
