Contents
Mur Oti achieved a very elaborate and aestheticist, yet implausible, product.
Plot
An aging and wealthy farmer (Lemos) sees how his young wife (Bautista) falls increasingly attracted to a newly hired and handsome laborer (Suarez). The conflict ends up unavoidably in a murder of passion.
Cast
Carlos Lemos was a very prominent stage actor, and this was one of his few film appearances. Aurora Bautista was by then the Spanish Queen of melodrama, while José Suárez was one of the main heartthrobs of the Spanish screens.
