Film noir. Drama Geometry professor Juan and his wealthy, married mistress Maria José, driving back from a late-night rendezvous, accidentally hit a cyclist, and run. The resulting tale of guilt, infidelity, and blackmail reveals the wide gap between the rich and the poor in Spain, and surveys the corrupt ethics of a society seduced by decadence.

Una gran dirección, excelente cinematografía, una fusión entre algunas secuencias imaginativas, y la tensión de la escena en el baile flamenco está muy conseguida; pero el ritmo decae por momentos y se vuelve tediosa, las actuaciones son en ocasiones rígidas, y el desenlace final se ve venir.
