Laura (Libertad Leblanc), a sensual stripper, receives from her lover (Jorge Salcedo) an envelope with an order to open it only in case he dies. When he is killed, she opens the envelope, finding half of a mysterious map and a piece of paper with instructions. Following these, Laura travels to Guayaquil, where she comes into contact with an Argentine geologist (Ricardo Bauleo), who owns the other half of the map. It turns out to be the map of a large treasure buried in the heart of the Ecuadorian jungle, in the territory of the fearsome Auca Indians, head reducers. Both are on the road, ready to face all the dangers that may be necessary, in order to get so valuable loot. But Laura's beauty and sensuality will awaken desire in all men throughout the dangerous expedition.

On the Arabian Peninsula in the 1930s, two warring leaders come face to face. The victorious Nesib, Emir of Hobeika, lays down his peace terms to rival Amar, Sultan of Salmaah. The two men agree that neither can lay claim to the area of no man’s land between them called The Yellow Belt. In return, Nesib adopts Amar’s two boys Saleeh and Auda as a guarantee against invasion. Twelve years later, Saleeh and Auda have grown into young men. Saleeh, the warrior, itches to escape his gilded cage and return to his father’s land. Auda cares only for books and the pursuit of knowledge. One day, their adopted father Nesib is visited by an American from Texas. He tells the Emir that his land is blessed with oil and promises him riches beyond his wildest imagination. Nesib imagines a realm of infinite possibility, a kingdom with roads, schools and hospitals all paid for by the black gold beneath the barren sand. There is only one problem. The precious oil is located in the Yellow Belt.
