An unstable young woman escapes from a reformatory for seriously wayward girls and deceptively finds shelter in the kind home of a frighteningly nice and decent family. Little by little, she causes unrest and discord among the members of the household until they are all fighting with one another.—Mark Toscano <[email protected]>

"Susana" is a powerful melodrama in which a beautiful, sultry delinquent girl (Rosita Quintana) escapes from a reform school and finds solace in the home of a well-to-do family. She uses her feminine wiles to tempt the men around her and turns the locals' orderly lives into frenzied chaos. The film uses the power of eroticism to reveal the hypocrisies of modern society.—Mr Bongo

One stormy night, sexy Susana escapes from the reformatory and reaches the ranch of Don Guadalupe, who lives with his wife Dona Carmen and their beloved son Alberto. When they see Susana, Dona Carmen, who is Christian and Good Samaritan, gives shelter to the duplicitous youngster, but elderly housekeeper Felisa is not convinced that she is telling the truth. The seductive Susana uses her beauty and sensuality to seduce Don Guadalupe, Alberto, and the henchman Jesus, and to destabilize the family.—Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
