Release
The film screened in March 2014 at the 10th Mlaga Film Festival, where it clinched the Audience Award. It was theatrically released in Spain on 29 June 2007. It performed well at the domestic box office, grossing over 2 million upon the first month of its theatrical run and becoming the highest-grossing Spanish release of the year up to that point.
Reception
Jordi Costa of 'El Pas' found the film worrying in terms of its status as a debut feature (insofar it was lacking in any sort of fresh look), presenting instead "four stale sitcom archetypes" crossing paths in a "microcosm inhabited by female clichs and extras in need of motivation".
Jonathan Holland of 'Variety' presented the film as a sort of translation to Spain of American film 'American Pie', featuring "a couple decent comic scenes and two good perfs" rising "above the pop soundtrack, navel-gazing and scatology".
