Los hijos de naides

Pablo Luque, a young man from the south looking for work, arrives at Los Cardales, a flourishing ranch owned by Pedro Aguirre, after seeing his mother die. Aguirre hires Luque to work there. The rude young man sparks the curiosity of the ranch owner's young daughter, who sees him as very different from the rest of the gang members. A few days later, Luque, who thought of himself as a shy young man, demonstrates the courage of his fists and his heart.

Directed by Edmo Cominetti, Los hijos de naides leans on a strong ensemble — Nelo Cosimi, Alfred Zorilla, Suzanne Grandais — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1921.
