Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This is a Spanish remake of the 1976 Italian film 'Rapporto Fuller, base Stoccolma'—the title's 'and Half' winkingly acknowledges its debt to the original while claiming its own identity.
Released shortly after Spain's euro adoption, the film captures real anxiety about foreign (especially German) economic dominance—making Galindo's heist feel like small-scale national resistance.
