The series chronicles the death and dismemberment of Colombian surgeon Edwin Arrieta by Daniel Sancho, an aspiring chef with a following on YouTube, in Thailand, on August 2023, which was covered worldwide by the media. Sancho, the son of Spanish actor Rodolfo Sancho, was tried and convicted in Thailand on August 29, 2024. Sancho initially claimed the killing was in self-defense, never pleading guilty to murder, but pled guilty to dismemberment and was sentenced to death, which was commuted to life in prison.
Gómez said the series centered on "issues of white privilege, of acquired right and the increasingly diffuse line between journalism and entertainment."
