  • The film's name

    The filmmaker said the name of the film refers to that feeling I had when I was 8 years old, during the Sunday afternoons, when the light fade out and I listened to the animated tv show songs in the background. The Bárbara Lennie character had the same feeling since she was little, when she started waiting for her mother to come home behind the window... and she didn't. And the Sunday illness lasts 35 years?.

  • Goya Awards
