This was the breakout role for blonde actress Libertad Leblanc, born Libertad María de los Ángeles Vichich Blanco in Argentia. Throughout the '60s and '70s, she concentrated on roles in exploitative fare like CAPTIVE OF THE JUNGLE and Libertad became "La actriz más famosa de Sudamérica" [the most famous actress in South America]. She shot movies with directors in Mexico, Brazil, Venezuela and, of course, Argentina. Miss Leblanc became known for her platinum blond hair, alabaster-white skin and her perchance for playing delinquent women with an active libido. She retired in 1990 after 30 years in the movie spotlight.
