We Treat Women Too Well is a rare avis, a beautiful bewilderment, a celebration of the complete opposite of what many would want for our cinema. First, because of its origin: a novel by the Frenchman Raymond Queneau published under a female pseudonym (Sally Mara) in 1947.

Second, by the transfer of the action from the fight of the Irish Republican Army against the British forces to the immediate post-Spanish war. Third, for treating these actions in a joking tone, with crazy black humor with the pulp spirit of the time, loaded with dirty sex and desperate violence. Fourth, because the person in charge of directing the event has been precisely a woman, and a debutant behind the camera, Clara Bilbao.
