Casa de Mujeres ("House of Women") is a 1966 Mexican drama film directed by Julián Soler and starring Dolores del Río. [1] In some countries the film was named El Hijo de Todas ("The Son of All").
At a Christmas party the women of a luxurious brothel all decide to become "mothers" to a baby boy born in a nearby home whose mother dies giving birth, and to reform.
The child grows up, and as a man informs them of his upcoming marriage. His "mothers" face the fear of being rejected and segregated by their own son by their previous lives as prostitutes.
