It is a sex comedy in Mariano Ozores style and in which stands out Alfredo Landa as a leader of the workers at a company . Ridiculous and embarrassing plot from Hipólito (Alfredo Landa) who is appointed spokesperson to present the complaints of his colleagues to the director (Antonio Ozores) of the factory . But the director who drives a Rolls Royce devises a scheme to put Hipólito on his side and appoints him his personal secretary so that the strikes to be failed ; as Hipolito finds particular reasons to progress in the company and eventually he marries his daughter (Maite Sancho , Fernando Sancho's daughter) .
A bemusing, crazy and absurd Spanish comedy from the ¨Destape¨ period with usual ingredients. The flick packs silly incidents , funny comical sketches , tongue-in-cheek , grotesque situations with plenty of naked girls and above all , it especially contains catching touches of humor and irony . Sitting in a strange middle ground between the completely absurd and the stylishly amusing . Here there's entertainment and amusement enough ; however, Mariano Ozores films with Pajares and Esteso are much better . There are some nice jokes in the film and the cast , playing eccentric characters , make a cosy fit . Being well set by that time , during early Eighties , adding ordinary nudism with regular ¨Destape¨ actresses : Pilar Alcón, Jenny Llada , Eva León . This hilarious film is full of craziness , humor , fun messes and narrating the conflict among labourers represented by Alfredo Landa and the egoistic entrepreneur : Antonio Ozores giving his usual interpretative touches . It is a simple , and humorous portrait at a time when factories hold ordinary strikes with habitual protesters . Alfredo Landa provides a sympathetic and agreeable performance as the hard-working Ambrosio who finds new motives to promote himself at the company .
