The official presentation

During a storm, Susana escapes from reform school and finds shelter at a respectable hacienda.

A 1951 Mexican film, it runs 82 minutes and stars Rosita Quintana, Fernando Soler, Víctor Manuel Mendoza, Matilde Palou, María Gentil Arcos and Luis López Somoza. The presentation describes it as a small subversive machine within the rules of Mexican melodrama.

In the home of the family that takes her in, Susana becomes the catalyst of the desires the others claim not to have: the foreman Jesús, young Alberto and even Alberto's father fall for her charm. The ending restores family order so perfectly that it seems, the organizers write, a fierce parody of uplifting morality.

Like all the screenings in the series, this one is in the original version with Italian subtitles. The program may change, as the official page warns.
