The film, based on real events and written by Fran Carballal (the series Scar and Una vida menos en Canarias), Ignasi Rubio (the series Desaparecidos and Alba, among others), and the director himself, follows Captain Reyes (played by Arón Piper) and Lieutenant Salgado (Miguel Herrán). These soldiers, who fought on opposing sides during the Spanish Civil War, are forced to share suffering and hope in a Soviet gulag during the Second World War. This coexistence will force them to join forces in the face of cold, hunger, and horror behind barbed wire. They will have to set aside their ideologies to discover the real person behind each uniform.

Miguel Ángel Vivas explains, “as the script is based on true events, it is essential to portray the cruelty experienced in a concentration camp through the eyes of soldiers—a perspective we aim to convey on the big screen to the audience with the utmost respect and truth.”

César Benítez, executive producer, emphasises, “for casting, we were looking for two powerful actors who could convey the harshness of a concentration camp under extreme conditions, while still maintaining hope for the future. From the very first moment, we saw that strength in both Miguel and Arón.”

La tregua is a co-production between Spassks99 AIE, Amanat Capital and Umaifilm, with the collaboration of Netflix, and the participation of RTVE and Plano a Plano. César Benítez, Emilio Amaré and Álvaro Benítez are the producers of the film, with Benítez and Emilio A. Pina as executive producers. Its international sales will be managed by Film Factory Entertainment.
