Espinosa spent a large part of his youth in the hospital because of his cancer and lost a leg. He later wrote a script from this story.
“ Station piracy is not a story about fighting death. We'll lose this fight anyway. No, it's a story that tells of the conscious life. That tells of the chance to become aware of life. "

“A very intense and convincing film based on an autobiographical play that treats its subject with the necessary seriousness without being too heavy. The film not only tells about the fight against death, but also pleads for a conscious life. "
