Before he had written the script for _Modelo 73 (2000)_ and worked in other films as address assistant and camera assistant. The pleasure for the circular and speedy dialogues, certain preference to show a slight fatality in couple's relationships, the cars like places where the actions insist on happening, the humor and the sadness, they are already some of the constants of his cinema reflected in the two previous films shorts: 2 en 1 auto (1998) and Rutas and veredas (1995).
