Searching for trailers, I could only find full chapters of this old Spanish TV series (1979). It is about a farm in Valencia region, where a tragedy takes hold of a hardworking man "Uncle Barret". His barracks, for which he has worked the land his whole life, just as his father and his grandfather did, is slipping from his grasp. Now, in his old age, he does not pay off working the garden as in his youth and he cannot face the debts. Don Salvador, the owner of the barrack urges him to pay the debts incurred. Unable to do so, he denounces the court to proceed with the eviction. Uncle Barret, Amparo, his wife, and his four daughters are put on the street. They are picked up by friendly neighbors as they can only give you that help. Uncle Barret, fired with rage, is not resigned to losing everything. He'll go to jail (where he stays until he dies) but his barrack won't be enjoyed by the damn old usurer, and kills him. All that's in chapter 1.
Starting on the second chapter and onward (by the way, the daughters of Barret ended up working as prostitutes), another family who rent the farm to live and work in it (Don Batiste with his wife, one daughter and four sons), start being object of hate and hostilities coming from their neighbors, since for them, the new family is usurping a property that in their minds will always be the "barrack of uncle Barret"
Don't need to watch the whole chapters. Feel free to skip them from part to part, just to get a general idea of the people's looks.
First two chapters of this TV series:
