The plot's historical backdrop is the Burgos trials.[2] Ana, an activist involved in the anti-Francoist struggle, has seemingly converted some of her life's worries into bodily symptoms, suffering from strange maladies.[3]
The film screened at the 26th San Sebastián International Film Festival in September 1978.[5][6] In 1979, a jury formed by the Madrid's Asociación de Productores Independientes, the Barcelona's Asociació de Productors de Catalunya and other producers selected the film to be the Spanish submission to the 51st Academy Awards.[7]
