A mixed tortilla Western-children's adventure film, this standard tale by director Rafael Baledon features Joselito as a young boy with singing talent who arrives in Mexico only to be kidnapped by an outlaw band. The young boy is saved by a hero-cowboy (Antonio Aguilar) who also likes to sing. Before the next melody has ended, they join up with a plucky white horse who can do almost anything, and several adventures take them along on an interesting journey. Meanwhile, Grandma is worried about why her little grandson would rather spend time with his cowboy friend than his own family.
