The screenplay is the work of Patxi Amezcua who is inspired by the life of Lucio Urtubia: he was a Spanish bricklayer and anarchist militant living in the French capital. Due to his clandestine activity in favor of international anarchist groups, he is considered by the Spanish and French political left as a sort of Robin Hood.
