Ben Sachs

Chicago Reader

Belmonte found new things to say about divorce and artistic frustration in practically every scene, employing a subtle visual language to convey the hero's complex internal life.

Jonathan Romney

Screen International

With its fragmented glimpses of the life of a middle-aged male artist, it's never quite apparent where the film is heading, or what it has on its mind.

Hollywood Reporter

Quiet, subtle and slightly exasperating.

Jorge Ignacio Castillo

Planet S Magazine

The resolution is thoroughly unearned (the cinematic equivalent of "sleeping on it"), which at 75 minutes-length feels straight-up lazy.

Rated: 2/5

Paul Parcellin

Film Threat

For a drama with a few humorous touches, it's a wispy story that almost isn't there. But rest assured that It will wash over you rather than deliver a gut punch, and sometimes that's just the level of emotional intensity we seek.

Rated: 8/10

Javier Porta Fouz

La Nación (Argentina)

Veiroj shows that his cinema has personality, nothing less: security and stylistic aplomb to evidence doubts, narrative fluidity to develop characters in the midst of obstacles and impossibilities. [Full Review in Spanish]
