Plot.
Arriving to a sleepy provincial city of northern Spain from the Basque Country, a police inspector with a psychologically damaged wife tracks down (with help from the local coroner) a psychotic misogynist killer of female children, who happens to hate his job as a fishmonger and his family altogether as well. The inspector kindles with Susana Grey, the teacher of a murdered girl, establishing a romantic affair.
Production.
The screenplay was penned by Elvira Lindo, adapting the novel by Antonio Muñoz Molina. The film is a Sogecine production. It was shot in Palencia, Castile and León. Produced by Andrés Santana, other crew members included Gonzalo F. Berridi (cinematography) and Teresa Font (editing) and Antonio Meliveo (music).
