Todo un hombre (What a Man) is a
romantic drama film directed by Pierre Chenal on his Latin film debut, and starring Francisco Petrone
and Amelia Bence.[1] Critically acclaimed, the film was compared by critics in Argentina to Jean Vigo's L'Atalante.[2] At the 1944 Argentine Film Critics Association Awards, Petrone won the Silver Condor Award for Best Actor for his performance in the film.[3]
Plot
Francisco Petrone is a tough, hard-working independent river man, who finds it difficult to communicate and express his true feeling to his young wife (Amelia Bence). The two travel up a winding river, and tension between the two escalates.
