Starring Mexican star Pedro Infante, "Black Angels" is about a couple formed by a beautiful woman and a singer, both white, who are parents of a black girl. The woman blames him, but the girl will suffer the racist treatment from her own mother. Mexican version of the famous novel by Fannie Hurst "Imitation of Life"

A racist woman who doesn't know about her own mixed heritage—even though she's lived with her black mother since birth—marries a pop singer. Everybody conspires to protect her from finding out about herself. It's not clear exactly why they do that.

Through choreography, it offers the representation of a baquiné or a Puertor Rican child's wake.
