Plot

Esteban Estévez, a mystery novel writer, must finish his new work, so in search of inspiration, he moves to an isolated cabin in the woods with his wife, Cristina, and his assistant, Federico. Secretly, Federico had been renting the cabin to a mysterious woman whom he urges to leave the house before Esteban and Cristina arrive. While leaving, the woman decides to keep an uncomfortable thing inside the house: a trunk containing a corpse.

Production

Diana Bracho made the film two years after having made Between Pancho Villa and a Naked Woman.[2]

In his autobiography Sin querer queriendo, Roberto Gómez Bolaños affirmed that the film suffered from a "very poor promotion", and as a result "it did not achieve the expected success", with Gómez Bolaños stating that the same had happened with the previous film he produced, ¡Que vivan los muertos!.[3]
