There was a 70's-ish Mexican family film titled "Los Dos Carnales", nominally in the Disney style, in which a housecleaning mother was falsely accused of stealing jewelry out of a mansion. She was arrested and sent to jail to await not a trial to prove her innocence but a bribe to the police chief to secure her freedom. So her adolescent son and his young friend worked all kinds of odd jobs and various hustles to get up cash, but it all failed to garner enough. I forget how, but the kids got into contact with a wealthy patron (formerly mom's boyfriend) who had a construction business, and he walked in with some chump change and sprung her. Then everyone lived happily ever after, one big happy family. The way it is presented I'm oddly reminded of the Disney version of "The Sound Of Music". What struck me the most is that it is a family film depicting what is a cultural practice.
