In their only and practically "invisible" film, Animación en la sala de espera (Entertainment in the Waiting Room), Rodríguez Sanz and Coronado filmed a caustic, harsh and terrible vision of life in a psychiatric hospital in Spain in the early years of the Transition, in all of its banality, showing activities (theatre, dance, simple tasks) and the words and bodies of the patients. A memorable document on family oppression and the nightmares generated by a society and its History.
