In a little town in Mexico, the rivalry between the families of Manuel (Jorge Negrete) and María Ángela Valdivia (María Félix) for the domain of a property known as El Peñón de las Ánimas prevents the love between the two young lovers.
It was the first movie of the legendary María Félix. For the movie, Jorge Negrete had requested that his girlfriend, the actress Gloria Marín be his costar; however, Félix was selected by the director, which led to a series of altercations between the couple. Ten years later they got married.
