Escrito por el futuro ganador del premio Nobel Gabriel García Márquez, esta es la historia de Patsy, una acaudalada debutante con un agudo sentido de la vida y una curiosidad sin límites. Ella se enamora de un hombre mayor (Julio Alemán) que está casado y es mediocre, y por lo tanto aprende de la manera más dura sobre la infelicidad, estropeando su mundo rosa.
This Mexican melodrama may have been released above the border as After the Storm. The principal characters are a pair of twin lighthouse keepers. They try their best to live together with their wives under the same roof, but the delicate balance is shattered when one of the brothers falls in love with his sister-in-law. When one twin is lost during a storm, the other assumes his identity, with the expected romantic complications. If Despues de la Termenta sounds familiar, it is because the screenplay was inspired by the 1946 Bette Davis vehicle A Stolen Life.
