Upon his return, they discover that they have always been in love.[3]

Development

The development of an Argentine-Uruguayan remake of the Basque-language film Bypass began in December 2020 when Natalia Oreiro and Juan Minujín were announced as its protagonists.[4] It was also confirmed that it would be a co-production between Argentine and Uruguayan studios.[5] The script was written by Beatriz Carbajales, Rodrigo H. Vila and Fernán Mirás.[6] The latter was chosen to direct the film, which was his second job as a director after The Heavy Hand of the Law in 2017.[7] Later, Minujín left the project, being replaced by Diego Velázquez.[8]

Filming

Filming was set to begin in November 2021 but was delayed due to the director's health problems.[9] It was finally carried out between October and November 2022, lasting five weeks.[10] It took place in both Buenos Aires, Argentina and Montevideo, Uruguay.[11]

The Uruguay part of the film was shot in the Pocitos and Punta Carretas neighborhoods of Montevideo and the interior scenes were filmed at a studio in Munro, Buenos Aires.[12]

Release

The film premiered in Montevideo on July 2, 2023, and in Buenos Aires a day later, and was theatrically released in both countries on July 6.[13] The film was available for streaming exclusively on Max on September 1, 2023.[14]
