Release

The film screened in the 'Panorama' section of the 50th Berlin International Film Festival in February 2000.[8] It was theatrically released in Spain on 7 April 2000.[2]

Reception

Ángel Fernández-Santos of El País assessed that Ferreira takes the reins of that "good script" with strength and clarity, "multiplying it" by virtue of her "remarkable filmmaking craft and instincts" and her "exquisite understanding with the actors", who nail their performances.[8]

Derek Elley of Variety deemed Ferreira's "inauspicious feature debut" to be "a wannabe psychological thriller that just gets sillier as it progresses".[9]

The review in

La Nación gave the film a so-so rating (regular), considering that, while "being neither a bad film nor an artistic nonsense" and offering a handful of good scenes, technical values, and Ana Fernández's acting solvency notwithstanding, the film is dragged by its slips, inaccuracies and certain unplausible denouements.[1]
