Argentine singing star Palito Ortega plays four roles in this lighthearted story. He is the son of a wealthy businessman who joins a vaudeville company run by David (Raul Rossi). He marries one of the performers, the lovely Teresa (Mercedes Carreras). She gives birth to triplets and assumes the family business following his father's death. One of his sons grows up to become a rock star, finding the stardom that eluded his father years before. Ortega plays the father and all three sons, giving him an excellent spotlight sure to delight his many fans. ~ Dan Pavlides, Rovi

Enrique Carreras directs this feature that contains three separate stories. "Children's Command" is a sentimental comedy that finds the children of a widowed father attempting to marry him off to their favorite television star Jimena Mercedes Carreras. In "Idols At Home," an actor is henpecked by his harridan wife, a retired tango singer who resents his continued popularity.
