- In this dramatic morality tale from Director Chano Urueto, a pretty young girl is torn between her religious faith and true love. She ultimately leaves the Convent and the nuns who cared for her, in order to marry a handsome and successful engineer. The couple's marital bliss is cut short when they find they cannot conceive children. After having an extramarital affair, the husband fathers a girl with the other woman. While hurt by his infidelity at first, this wife recovers and both soon realize that they could raise this baby as their own daughter, while allowing the biological mother to avoid the shame and stigma of having a child out of wedlock. This convenient solution seems as if it was tailor-made and heaven-sent. This mutually advantageous and seemingly harmless lie works out well through the years, as their daughter grows into a beautiful young woman in her own right. Just as she is about to marry her own true love, the poor girl finally discovers the awful truth. Consequently, she feels that she must now go live with her birth mother, especially after being lied to for so long by those who raised her. Worst of all, she is suddenly forced to come to grips with the fact that she is really an illegitimate child, born out of wedlock, as the result of an adulterous affair. As such, she now considers herself to be tainted and utterly unworthy to marry her intended, or anyone else, for that matter. The all-star cast includes Rene Cardona, David Silva and Jose Pulido.

- This film represents an early building-block in the lengthy film career of actress Maria Felix. Even so, she was already well on her way to becoming a Latina sex-symbol, movie icon and the era's ultimate Diva, who in turn, stayed loyal to her Latin American and transplanted Mexican-American fan base. Although she clearly had the talent, beauty, and possessed the undefinable "it factor" that made millions adore her over the years, from the start she chose not to relocate to Hollywood to further capitalize on this immense popularity. Starring in the title role, in this feature Felix plays the latest love interest of Carlos, who is a wealthy but absentee plantation owner, ( played by Actor Rafael Baledon). Although Maria Eugenia is aware that her boyfriend likes the ladies, she does not know that he is already promised in marriage to the daughter of his now dying Godmother back home. As Carlos remains silent and struggles to find a way to break the bad news to " La Madrina" and his first fiancee, matters inevitably proceed toward their own conclusion. However, such an end result may not be the one that Carlos wants or even expects.
