Director [Julio Médem](/wiki/Julio_M%C3%A9dem "Julio Médem") illustrates the cyclical nature of the unresolved strife and vacillating alliance between the two rival families in the film by using the same actor to portray generations of characters. The actor Carmelo Gómez's plays the cowardly Manuel Iriguíbel in the Carlist Wars, Manuel's son Ignacio in 1905, and eventually, the matured photographer, Peru Mendiluze, who returns the Basque region at the onset of the Spanish Civil War in 1936\. Kandido Uranga plays first the doomed Carmelo Mendiluze in 1875 and then Carmelo's obsessive and haunted son Juan in the other three segments of the film. Karra Elejade plays both Ilegorri and Ilegorri's son Lucas.

Médem cast Carmelo Gómez in his next two films: *[La ardilla roja](/wiki/La_ardilla_roja "La ardilla roja")* (The Red Squirrel), 1993\) and *[Tierra](/wiki/Tierra_%28film%29 "Tierra (film)")* (Earth), 1996\) pairing him in both cases with Emma Suárez
like here in *Vacas*.
