Synopsis

The owner of a small but prosperous department store, played by Pepe Arias, is pushed by his family to improve their social position. He makes heavy investments in the rubber tire business. When World War II begins, he finds that overnight he has become fabulously rich. He closes a huge deal with the Germans, but his delight turns to horror when he finds that they have sunk an Allied ship carrying his son. The film combines humor with biting comment on Argentina's neutral stance in the war.[3]

Cast

The cast included:[1]

gollark: My *previous* phone became unusable due to not actually holding in μUSB cables, preventing me from charging it. Though I think that's partly because the port was mildly out of spec.
gollark: Also, my phone (~2 years old) has a USB-C port which cables randomly come loose from now.
gollark: I'd prefer the ability to swap out batteries over waterproofing.
gollark: I have a long wishlist for phones, but I think the most important thing is actual replaceable parts.
gollark: It's weird, because back in 2017 or so I think most phones, or at least a lot of them, had removable batteries. Now basically none do.
