Nowadays, it is viewed as a portrayal of society during the Spanish transition to democracy.
José and Elena were friends. They share everything, except for some unfinished business: sex. Now, with the return of democracy to the country, both have remained friends, but married to other people, and now become lovers. José is involved in politics.
Two songs are emblematic in the film: Mikis Theodorakis's Honeymoon song by Gloria Lasso, and 15 años tiene mi amor (My love is 15 years old) by Duo Dinamico.
