Plot
Set in March 2015 in Bilbao, the plot concerns a bank heist, involving two robbers (the violent Lola and the heroin-addict Jonan) and Raquel, a woman who was at the bank branch desperately asking for a €35,000 credit (70 binladens; that is, 70 €500 notes) to see her daughter again when the former two break in.

Production
The screenplay was penned by Javier Félix Echániz, Asier Guerricaechevarría and Juan Antonio Gil Bengoa. 70 Big Ones is a Sayaka Producciones, Pokeepsie Films and La Panda production, with participation of RTVE, ETB and Movistar+ and support from ICAA.

Release
The film screened at the 51st Sitges Film Festival on 12 October 2018. Distributed by Filmax, it was theatrically released in Spain on 8 March 2019.

Reception
Reviewing for Cinemanía, Yago García scored 3 out of 5 stars, deeming Emma Suárez and Nathalie Poza to be the best assets of the film, otherwise dragged by "screeching" plot twists, flashbacks trying to fill in the gaps, explanations coming too early or too late and, "above everything", its ending.

Alberto Bermejo of El Mundo's magazine Metrópoli, rated the film with 2 out of 5 stars, praising Emma Suárez "in her most disturbing role"; the "also unrecognisable" Nathalie Poza, and Hugo Silva, while citing as a negative point "the frustrated ambition to go beyond the thriller".
