The film offers a bitter , violent and sour look at the years of the democratic Transition in Spain. It delivers a visceral critique to pre-and-post-Francisco Franco period , as it is set during Post-Francoist epoch , an early democratic time called Spanish Transition, in the newborn Spanish democracy ; by the time various sharp fims with strong political charge were released , as in hilarious , cynical style : ¨Las Truchas, ¨Tú estas loco Briones¨, ¨Arriba Azaña¨ , ¨Vota a Gundisalvo , as in a more serious wake :¨Sonambulos¨, ¨Fuga de Segovia¨, ¨3 Dias de Enero¨. A twisted and plenty of talking and sex plot written by Paulino Viota himself , portraying the frustrated hopes of a broad social sector and the subsequent vengeance executed by a malicious entrepreneur . It contains a lot of sex , nudism , and some disagreeable scenes when a violent rape takes place and carried out by two rapists played by known secondary actors : Angel De Andres López and Francisco Casares . Pretty good cast and support cast , such as : Santiago Ramos as a syndicate leader forced to reclusive , Alicia Sanchez as a militant of a left party , Luis Politti as a killer , José Manuel Cervino , Francisco Casares, Ángel de Andrés López , Victor Petit , Eduardo Bea , José Thelman , José Yepes and Francisco Vidal , among others .
