A musical comedy with surrealist touches in which a likeable thief, “El Randa,” breaks into a banker’s mansion to steal a few objects and give them away as wedding gifts—only to be caught by the banker’s lover, who takes advantage of the situation and runs off with two million dollars. Once “El Randa” has been arrested and charged with the theft, the banker is forced to offer him special treatment in prison, where he enjoys all kinds of comforts.
