Diferente

A young man from the gentry rejects all the values his family upholds while they rejects his own; so that, despite his efforts to please and the fact that he works in the family business, he ends up finding out that his uptight and competent brother calls him useless and effeminate.

Directed by Luis María Delgado, Diferente leans on a strong ensemble — Alfredo Alaria, Manuel Monroy, Julia Gutiérrez Caba — 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 1962.
