Coproducción entre Francia, Italia y México, según la novela de William Barby Faherty, que contó nada menos que con cinco guionistas para su adaptación: el propio William Barby Faherty, Serge Gance, Miguel Morayta, Ennio De Concini, James R. Webb. Primera colaboración entre el director Henri Verneuil y el compositor Ennio Morricone, quienes después trabajarían consecutivamente en cinco títulos más: El clan de los Sicilianos (1969), El furor de la codicia (1971), El serpiente (1973), Pánico en la ciudad (1975) e I... como Icaro (1976). Todas ellas obras maestras musicales.
Leon Alastray is an outlaw who has been given sanctuary by Father John, whom he then escorts to the village of San Sebastian. The village is deserted, with its cowardly residents hiding in the hills from Indians, who regularly attack the village and steal all their supplies. When Father John is murdered, the villagers mistakenly think the outlaw is the priest. Alastray at first tells them he is not a priest, but they don't believe it, and an apparent miracle seems to prove they are correct. Eventually, he assists them in regaining their confidence and defending themselves.
