Production went smoothly, until the rough film was revealed and it turned out that a good chunk of it was filmed out of focus. Fina Torres decide to refilm the whole thing. This was a Cuban-Venezuelan coproduction heavily funded by public institutions, and it was already almost over budget before the need to refilm arose. The final product still had to use the out-of-focus material and has several parts with terrible audio synchronization (although that's on par with Venezuelan films, which have a long story of awful sound mixing).
