Professor Karin (Arturo de Cordova) is a scam artist, luring impressionable women to his fortune telling parlor, and, later, blackmailing them with the secrets they so eagerly revealed. But the Professor takes his con a bit too far, as a vindictive widow (Leticia Palma) seeks an ultimate revenge. A massive hit, "In the Palm of Your Hand" was nominated for 11 Ariel Awards (Mexico's highest cinematic honor) and won 8, including Best Picture, Director and Actor.
