Gustavo de Carrara has made his fortune running a diamond mine in South Africa, but he can't quite remember who he was before 1921, though he suspects he was a soldier. A waiter at the Melilla hotel where he's staying confirms this suspicion by recognizing him as Augusto Miralles, his captain at the Battle of Annual, who disappeared under mysterious circumstances.

Rafaelillo, a young upper-class Andalusian man and medical student in Madrid, has not told his parents the whole truth about the kind of life he leads in the capital. Once home, he will have to face the consequences of his many lies… (Film produced in Argentina by the Spanish company Filmófono, after the forced exile of most of its members since 1937.)

A film by Antonio Graciani
