Production
The movie faced censorship issues, including a ban on its original title "The Reapers" because it coincided with the name of the Catalan anthem. To avoid political controversy, the time frame of the story was shifted from the 1950s to 1935. Eventually, the setting was placed in 1931 to relieve the Republic of any blame for the characters' hardships. Filming started on June 26, 1957, and wrapped up on September 29 of the same year. ==See also==
