A Calladita Films, Potenza Producciones, and Decentralized Pictures production, the film was partially financed through the Andrews/Bernard Award (a Steven Soderbergh-backed post-production fund granted at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival) and by a crowdfunding campaign through non-fungible tokens (NFC). Jim Cummings served as executive producer. The film was shot in September 2022 in the Costa Brava.

Reception


Wendy Ide of ScreenDaily wrote that the film "combines a distinctive tone and striking visual sense with a knock-out performance from Paula Grimaldo".

Laura Pérez of Fotogramas rated the film 3 out of 5 stars, highlighting the discovery of Paula Grimaldo as the best thing about the film.
