Background
The film is based on the novel El club de los lectores criminales by Carlos García Miranda. It was produced by Brutal Media and scored by Arnau Bataller. While the novel is set at the Complutense University of Madrid, the film avoids explicit mention of the setting, with footage shot in Toledo at the Faculty of Legal and Social Sciences of the University of Castilla-La Mancha and the Hospital de Tavera.
