Soledad is a 1947 Mexican drama film directed by Miguel Zacarías and starring Libertad Lamarque, René Cardona and Marga López.[1][2][3][4][5] It was shot at the Clasa Studios in Mexico City. The film's sets were designed by the art director Javier Torres Torija.
Soledad Somellera (Libertad Lamarque), an Argentine maid, secretly marries the son of her employers, Roberto Covarrubias (René Cardona). However, Roberto abandons her soon after to marry a wealthy woman, revealing to Soledad that their wedding was staged and thus not valid. Soledad runs away, pregnant with Roberto's child, although soon after, Roberto's mother locates her and convinces her to give up her daughter so that she can grow up without suffering hardships. Soledad becomes a famous singer, adopting the stage name of Cristina Palermo, while her daughter, Evangelina (Marga López), grows into a spoiled brat who, when she has the opportunity to meet Palermo, treats her with contempt, ignoring that she is her mother.
