ReceptionJavier Ocaa of 'El Pas' deemed the film to be "an ambitious, sometimes grandiloquent work, which always comes to fruition with courage and singularity" when retelling the events of 1912, managing to portray a country's moral mysery. Toni Vall of 'Cinemana' rated the film 2 out of 5 stars, pointing out that the cast was "uneven", featuring "a solvent but not brilliant [male] lead", with Dans otherwise rather pulling his best in the representation of the setting (El Raval).
