Four Spanish women will attempt to carry out fraud in Mexico, but on the way they will meet two gangsters, played by Mexican actors José Maria Yazpik and Diego Luna. It is about the film Sólo Quiero Caminar (I Only Want to Walk) that will be directed by Spaniard Agustín Díaz Yanes and that will also have the participation of Victoria Abril, Ariadna Gil, Pilar López de Ayala and Elena Anaya.

“I cannot say much of the synopsis, because I am prohibited. I will only say that Chema Yazpik, Diego Luna, and everything are a diversion. I believe that this movie is going to please very much because it is our commercial bet. We hope to begin in March. Victoria Abril and many other Spanish girls will come to dumbfound all the Mexicans,” revealed Pablo Cruz, director of Canana Films. It is expected that the movie will film for eight weeks in the Federal District [Mexico City], in the conurbada zone and two more in Spain.

“We are very satisfied because we are on the verge of beginning and everything is working very well,” expressed Cruz. Although he’s not proud of it, the Canana director supported the declarations by Diaz Yanes, who in September said that he decided to film Sólo Quiero Caminar in Mexico because the climate of violence lived here is higher than in Spain.

“It is possible that he (Díaz Yanes) sees it that way, since I believe at this time Mexico has a particular situation that is very filmable. That is not something we’re happy about, but there is a texture and a social crisis that is necessary to show it,” commented Cruz in an interview. In addition to Diego and José Maria, it is probable that Dagoberto Gama, who acted in the film El Violín, will be included in the cast.
