The film is the sequel to Where Are You Going, Alfonso XII? with Vicente Parra, José Marco Davó and Tomás Blanco reprising their roles from the previous film as Alfonso XII, Antonio Cánovas del Castillo and the Duque de Sesto respectively. María Fernanda Ladrón de Guevara replaced Mercedes Vecino as Isabella II.
Similar in style to the German Sissi film series, it was very popular but led to Vicente Parra's typecasting.[1]
The film's sets were designed by the art director Enrique Alarcón.
