Director
José Luis Sáenz de Heredia
Storyline
Three different stories whose central axis are radio listeners: several contestants have to get to a radio station studio dressed as Eskimos, a thief answering a call in the house where he is stealing and a school teacher who participates in a contest to get money to cure a child of his village. The stories are linked by the love story of a speaker and his fiancée and through interviews of real celebrities from the time of film. (adapted from IMDb)

Unidentified actors
Unidentified credited actors
- Carlos Osorio - He has 3 other credits listed on IMDb, none with roles. IMDb lists him as playing a Passerby and since their other ID's for this film are correct then this is quite possible. This role description would presumably refer to one of the men in images 15-33, however there are at least 5 actors in this scene with small speaking roles of equal size, so it's impossible to know which he could be. I did search 2 of the other films where he is credited to see if I could recognise any of these actors, but, probably due to one being poor quality and the other having actors in period wigs and helmets, I had no luck making any matches.

- This could maybe be a young Manuel Ayuso on the left, but I'm not certain
