The story opens with a fiesta — tango, music, the swishing of dancing senoritas' scarfs, the clinking of glasses. In the midst of this gaiety a little girl enters to ask the Padre to come quickly for her mother is dying. The hilarious tempo of the story changes to one of sadness — the mother of a happy household quietly slips away
A year passes and Consuelo, older daughter who now mothers the family, causes her father deep worry for she has the same symptoms which marked her mother's decline. Sr Lopez is afraid of doctors, uninformed about sanatoria and burdened with the belief that tuberculosis is inherited. Consuelo, herself, secretly dreads her doom. But the wise Padre discovers the household's distress and persuades them to see the doctor
Then follow scenes in the doctor's office, the X-ray room and flnsilly the sanatorium. In all these experiences Lopez learns much about tuberculosis from the doctor and nurse and he in turn becomes a missionary of tuberculosis prevention among his friends
"A good film for (1) showing that early diagnosis followed by proper care Is essential to successful treatment of tuberculosis, (2) showing some precautions which should be taken to prevent the spread of tuberculosis, and (3) showing how tuberculosis may be detected. . . In the English version previewed by the panel, the Spanish accent of the cast adds reality without a loss of clarity of thought. . . Photography Is good; sound is fair." Am. council on education
