The premise treats the women's challenges to 1970s institutional sexism and patriarchal structures inside the police force as the primary character driver and ongoing plot engine. This setup frames the institution itself as complicit in systemic corruption and state repression, with anti-police sentiment and vigilante justice positioned as direct responses to that failure across episodes. Creator Fernando Rovzar has explicitly tied the narrative to confronting patriarchal harm and exposing hidden government violence, linking the historical events to contemporary issues like feminicides and disappearances in Mexico. These choices make the ideological framing of institutional patriarchy and state repression foundational rather than incidental, elevating the progressive critique of authority and gender dynamics as the season's core justification for its character arcs and conflicts.
