Young Enrique Álvarez Félix played Nilo in this film. This was his most famous film role. Nilo was castrated at the end of the film, and this was interesting for some spectators who noticed that Enrique had a difficult relationship with his mother in his real life.
This film was based on the play Nilo, mi hijo by Antonio González Caballero.
Elementary school teacher Margarita Ramírez tries to make her life beautiful once again with her son Nilo. He is a result of a rape in a distant city, but Margarita loves him nonetheless.
