Cast[edit]

Production[edit]

Montoya decided to shoot the film after being gifted the graphic novel, but according to him, it took him nearly seven years to develop the project.[3] The film is a Raw Pictures, Nakamura Films, and Haciendo la casa AIE production, with the participation of RTVE, À Punt, and CreaSGR, the funding from ICAA, ICO, and the collaboration of IVC.[4] Digital tweaks were used to de-age Miguel Rellán in some past scenes.[5] It was shot in locations of the Valencia region.[4]

Release[edit]

The film was presented at the 27th Málaga Film Festival on 5 March 2024.[6] Distributed by A Contracorriente Films, it is scheduled to be released theatrically in Spain on 1 May 2024.[7]
