Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Mexican singing favorite Elvira Rios made her Argentine film debut in Ven, Mi Corazon te Llama (When My Heart Calls). The plot is set in motion by Alicia Barrie, chronic-gambler wife of anti-gambling newspaper editor Tito Lusiardo. The latter's crusade against crooked gaming establishments is seriously compromised by Barrie's activities -- especially when she leaves a ring as security at the roadside casino managed by the husband of Elvira Rios. When said husband is murdered, Barrie is accused of the crime but is cleared at the last minute by Rios, who knows only too well "who done it."
