## Behind the Scenes

The film was shot in June 2024, over four days around Barcelona, at the Terramar circuit, and one day in the water tank at Ciudad de la Luz in Alicante, where Bayona filmed The Impossible. More than 150 people worked on the shoot, and Palomares Grupo Arte built a full-size competition catamaran on a steel frame for it.
