The picture stars Ninon Sevilla as a beautiful young woman who unwittingly falls into a lurid life of prostitution and nightclub dancing. Before long though, she decides enough is enough and attempts to claw her way out of the seedy underbelly.Aventurera was released in the United States as The Adventuress.
