The filmmaker stated: "La película asume la certeza de lo que es y cómo funciona el sistema judicial norteamericano para alguien latinoamericano y pobre como Saldaño" (The film takes on the certainty of the judicial system in then United States and how it works for someone from Latin America and poor like Saldaño).
