Car thief Rai loses a money stash owed to crime boss Mikima, thereby accepting a job offered by Manrique consisting on finding a woman named Nora, so he could get money and pay off the debt.[1]
The film (Therón's sophomore feature) takes elements from Therón's 2007 short film of the same name and features several returning cast members.[4] Therón claimed to have found inspiration in films such as Airbag (1997) and Snatch (2000).[4] The film was produced by Mediagrama alongside Enigma Films.[5] It was primarily shot in Gijón.[6]
Distributed by Emon,[7] it was released theatrically in Spain on 27 July 2012.
Fausto Fernández of Fotogramas rated the film 3 out of 5 stars, considering that Villagrán nails "the anti-hero in love looking for redemption and second chances".[8]
Irene Crespo of Cinemanía rated the film 2 out of 5 stars.[3]
Jordi Costa of El País considered that even if it is difficult for the film to leave any indelible print on the viewer, it at least manages to deliver what it promises.[9]
