Reception
La Razón remarked that it was "a production without major pretensions but with elements that make it interesting," while Calki (Raimundo Calcagno) noted "a degree of renewal in the themes of our cinema… a concern with the search for authentic imagery." Roland (Rolando Fustiñana) commented on "an excess of dialogue that is not very polished, a lack of unity in the narrative, and an uneven tone."[1]
