Chela Bon

A house by the sea has stood vacant for many years, after misfortune befell several owners, which an artist painting the house explains to a passergy. A cross-editing of principal material from two Chilean films, LA CASA ESTA VACIA and LA DAMA DE LA MUERTE, with the addition of new American-made footage, to create a single story.

A very modest employee exchanges her newborn child with the baby of a wealthy family. However, years later, when the young man is about to graduate as a doctor, he begins to investigate his hidden past.

When her father dies, the young protagonist must endure the injustices of her stepmother. Her life changes when Uncle Carlos appears, a generous man who suffers from blindness and who falls in love with the village teacher, who ardently corresponds to him.

This beautiful, atmospheric Chilean movie (made by an Argentinian director) was unfortunately "cannibalized" by Jerry Warren, who kept about a third of the original footage, together with another third of "La dama de la muerte" (another superb Chilean movie of the same period, made by Argentinian director Carlos Hugo Christensen), then added his own senseless "additional sequences" with John Carradine and Katherine Victor, the final result being the atrocious CURSE OF THE STONE HAND.

Toribio poses as a sultan enjoying the female company of the harem.

The film narrates the problems faced by a small group from the small imaginary town of Tunco that arrives in Santiago to ask their representative in parliament for the construction of a road to improve communication alternatives for the inhabitants of the southern hamlet.
