In Spain this movie is considered a classic one (pulp movies). In Spanish media almost nothing has been done to explain the social difficulties the gypsies (gitanos) were dealing with in Madrid. THis movie was the start in a series of social GYPSie (gitano) movies.
This movie was the fire which was needed to produce other classics about crime and gitanos in MAdrid.
Movies which really hit the top charts were called: 'Perros callejeros' (1983) Yo, el Vaquilla' (1985).
These 2 movies can be seen as the the classic ones with amazing soundtracks from Los CHichos and Los CHunguitos who sing about racism, drugs, social issues and flamenco.
