Quite ambitiously staged vehicle for Signora Flores, who has a strong singing voice and gets by doing her castanets number. Her career ran half a century. Picture a singing Anna Magnani Her numbers space the plot that has her leaving the gypsy camp for the big city, where her talent gets to be show cased in a (cut to colour) TV studio ballet to Ravel's Bolero.
The production is quite substantial in the terms of the contemporary Mexican film. Competent all studio filming in the hands of Cardona, whose exploitation films had wide circulation dubbed, while the works of Miss Flores appear to be known only in the Hispanic world.
