This is a region-free DVD-R without case or artwork.

In Spanish with English subtitles.

Based on John Steinbeck's short novel The Pearl, La Perla is the tragic fable of a simple Mexican fisherman (Pedro Armendariz) who finds a valuable pearl and begins fantasizing about untold wealth and luxury for himself and family. His more sensible wife (Maria Elena Marques) is uncertain as to whether the pearl is an omen of good luck, but soon she, too, falls under its spell. The couple's naivete leads to their being exploited and brutalized by sharpsters and thieves.

5 of 5 Great resource February 23, 2021
Reviewer: Brent Scott from Fairfield, IA United States  
Great to find a source for hard to find films. Would have liked the DVD to have come in a standard DVD box, but it's a small thing.

4 of 5 La Perla is excellent November 16, 2017
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Rochester, NY United States  
This is worthy as a moral tale of greed and collective good will working out the underlying conflict with beautiful cinematography in a setting unfamiliar to this century in the United States.
