It won the Silver Condor for Best Film. The film was selected as the Argentine entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 66th Academy Awards, but Leonardo Favio asked the Instituto Nacional de Cinematografa (INC) to remove it as a nominee in order to protest in delays of the Congress' approval of the Foreign Films taxes.Margaret Herrick Library, Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences
