8.5El Grito Sagrado (The Silent Call) is a fictionalized retelling of Argentina's fight for independence from Spain. The story is "personalized" by being related through the eyes of Mariquita Sanchez de Thompson y Mendeville, played by popular Latin American leading lady Fanny Navarro. Rebelling against the cozy traditionalism of her family, Mariquita weds tireless patriot Martin Thompson (Carlos Cores). She remains by her husband's side as he helps to fend off a British invasion and to achieve freedom for the Argentine slave population. Oddly, the principal villains in the film are the British, a reflection perhaps of Argentine dictator Juan Peron's ongoing efforts to curry favor with Spain.

10.0The son of a businessman neglected by his father and orphaned by a mother, goes to a group of friends. A typical gang of humble neighborhood boys, led by Chirola. The history of this gang is ruled by two magical characters, El Hada de la Esperanza represented by Liliana Rodríguez Morlino and El Pombero, a typical Formosan character-legend, played by Jaime Cohen. Through these boys the life of the social classes of the time is reflected, the innocence of the boys apart from those values and what children are capable of when they decide to transform things. During the story, the typical life of the province in which it was filmed, Formosa, and the daily life of the neighborhoods of the capital city that used to be a commercial port with Paraguay are highlighted.
