4/5
Like 'Sliding Doors' with added subtlety and soul, this swooning love story spins the idea of 'what if?' into something deeply romantic. Go to Full Review Tim Robey Daily Telegraph (UK) 02/20/2020
5/5
The film is like finding one of Proust's madeleines tucked inside a short story by Borges, where it keeps vanishing and reappearing. Go to Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian 02/20/2020
3/5
It balances what is with what might have been and what could still be, and, although the result is maybe a bit less substantial than Castro intended, there is a certain literary elegance in the way he sketches it out. Go to Full Review Brian T. Carney Washington Blade 12/07/2022
With bold and exciting artistic choices, first-time director Lucio Castro creates a steamy mystery about two men who meet on the streets of Barcelona. Go to Full Review Cris Kennedy The Canberra Times (Australia) 08/17/2022
4/5
Castro asks some hard questions for the audience to ponder about those brief moments that could have become real things, real relationships, had we the maturity to allow it for ourselves. Go to Full Review Jason Adams My New Plaid Pants 01/14/2022

Garry A @heavyg Apr 30 I would like the $3 back I paid to rent this film. There sex scene wasn't hot at all. The time lines were confusing. Alot of nothing was going on too. See more PridePosterStudios 09/20/2023 Surely I’m not the only one who had no idea when flashbacks were happening and when they weren’t. Vapid, and felt like it was a century long. See more 08/27/2020 Mind blowing, one of the best movies I have ever seen 🤯🍾 See more Apollo M 08/04/2020 The story is quite confusing. But other than that, if I got the story right, it is quite alright. The acting and directing are great. See more 07/29/2020 Hum, what is happening with the timeline?! Spoilers : one of them says they've already met before then the films "goes back" in time without any sort of warning. Then it comes back to the present, only to go to some alternate reality for a short while (without any notice, again!!) before coming back to the present again. That aside, the film is alright. The characters are likeable and sweet. See more 11/11/2019 It was somewhat obscure but overall good rhythm and acting. Having goat cheese, bread and white wine by the Barcelona sunset reflected the sensuality and simplicity of this pleasant movie. Perfect pastime even when you suspect you don't follow the script completely. See more Read all reviews
