520 "The genre of moody musical melodramas known as rumberas
could be kitsch but they were far from comedies. The films,
like their heroines on screen, were socially condemned by
the middle class, becoming forbidden pleasures for their
cult following. Aventurera is considered the epitome of
the genre and features a dynamic performance by the Cuban
rumba dancer Ninón Sevilla, the queen of the cabareteras,
cast against Andrea Palma. Sevilla was famous for her
angry outbursts, which are well used in a film that
presents a devastating indictment of bourgeois hypocrisy.
The film follows the fall and rise of a talented girl from
a "good" family, Elena (Sevilla), who becomes disenchanted
when her upstanding mama reveals a down-and-dirty side.
Becoming a cabaret dancer, Elena is spiraled into a net of
vice and oppression, but slowly she becomes the spider and
others, the flies. It seems to be her destiny to unveil
the secret, vice-laden lives of bourgeoisie like her
mother"--Pacific Film Archive program note.
