Sin instrucciones is an upcoming Spanish comedy-drama film directed by and written by Marta Sánchez and Irene Niubó based on the 2013 Mexican film Instructions Not Included. It stars Maia Zaitegi, Paco León, and Silvia Alonso.
After Leo is dumped a baby girl (Alba) by his former fling Julia (who just disappears) in the Canary Islands, Leo moves to Bilbao to search unsuccessfully for Julia and grows fond of Alba instead as they become a family against the odds. They are upended by the eventual return of Julia demanding the custody of the girl eight years later.[1]
The film was produced by La Pepa Films, Basque Films, and Demasiados Enemigos AIE and it had the participation of Atresmedia and Netflix.[2] It boasted a budget of €2.7 million. It was shot in Biscay (including the Doña Casilda Iturrizar Park, the Vizcaya Bridge, the Casco Viejo, MercaBilbao and Guggenheim Museum Bilbao) and Gran Canaria (including Acantilado del Farallón, Maspalomas, and Playa de Las Burras).[3]
The film is scheduled to be released theatrically in Spain on 25 December 2024 by Warner Bros. Pictures.
