Mulata

Two mulatos, Mateo and Caridad, grow up together in a port in Havana, Cuba. As the years pass, Mateo falls in love with Caridad, but she falls in love with a Mexican captain, Martin. Martin falls into financial trouble and has to mortgage his boat to Guevara, owner of the cantina where Caridad dances. When Martin returns to Vera Cruz to resolve his troubles, Guevara feels he "owns" Caridad. What will Caridad do when Martin returns?
