Description
Summary:<p> </p><p><span lang="ES-AR">This film, shot in the 40s with Argentinean and Hispanic protagonists, narrates the ventures and misadventures between an Argentinean rich native and a Spanish variety artist in the ancient Buenos Aires during the last third of the 19th century. Both will be active participants during the lethal epidemic of yellow fever that devastated the city of Buenos Aires in 1871. Though finally redemptive for their love, such epidemic crisis forces to remember the permanent need to maintain an alert and foresighted attitude, scientifically supported, when facing this kind of massive population disasters.</span></p><p> </p>
