Gustavo Cisneros was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer for the first time in 2010. He made the decision not to stop directing in Fénix despite having already started chemotherapy treatment.

"I'm going to continue directing until my body gives me, it's a life decision," he says. "The disease woke up, the cancer cells began to move again in the pancreas and they are doing a lot of damage," he heard again. "There is nothing that can stop Gustavo. Since he delegated Saturday morning to his field team, he decided to cancel the day off and called the rest at his home to train"
