Reception
Jonathan Holland of Variety deemed the film to be "a distinctive, willfully edgy low-budgeter", getting "top marks for style but B− for substance".[1]
Mirito Torreiro of Fotogramas rated the film 3 out of 5 stars, citing "the brazenness of the proposal" and the discovery of Elvira Herrería as positive elements.[2]
F.M. of El Mundo gave the film a 0 rating, writing that "the bad thing is not so much the weak approach but its conception as a pretext to develop the aesthetics of an advertising film".[7]
