Plot
Gustavo Adolfo Almazán is a repressed millionaire[4] married to an invalid named Alba. His life is dictated by his tyrannical mother Ana MarÃa.[5] One night, Iván, a rascal brother-in-law of Gustavo, brings two drunken cabaret singers, Fernanda and Rita, to the Almazán household and they start a raucous party. This is how Gustavo meets Fernanda, alias Colorina (on account of her red hair) with whom he’ll share a passionate love affair.[6]
Ana MarÃa wants a grandchild and pays Colorina to have a child with her son, on condition that she gives it to Alba to raise as her own. Although Fernanda initially agrees with the plan, she changes her mind after her son is born. Colorina flees to Monterey where she starts a new life. Twenty years later, Fernanda is a respectable matron, the prosperous owner of a boutique. Colorina decide to return to Mexico and introduce her biological son and two adopted sons to the Almazán family to see if they can guess which one is Gustavo Adolfo’s son.

Lyrics of the song
Colorina
con tu canto de golondrina
y ese sueño en la piel
has llenado de ti mi vida.
Colorina,
corazón de ternura escondida,
bajo tu mando de amor
llevas mi alma prendida.
Colorina...
Nuestro amor no tendrá final
porque ha echado su raÃz
mas allá del bien y el mal,
porque es puro como el agua de manantial.[7]
