How it feels
A melodrama set in Madrid involving characters connected to the Puerta del Sol. It is notable as an early Spanish sound film but was a financial failure.

What happens
El misterio de la Puerta del Sol, del onubense Francisco Elías Riquelme, es considerada como la segunda película española sonora. A diferencia de la primera, Fútbol, amor y toros, sí se conserva una copia. A pesar de sus avances técnicos fue todo un fracaso desde el punto de vista económico, por lo que su importancia es de tipo histórico y documental. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
