Leslie Felperin Guardian González gets the tonal mix about right and this film suggests she'll be a name to watch out for in the future. Rated: 4/5 Aug 16, 2021 Full Review Wendy Ide Screen International It's an engaging but rather slight story, given heft by a sensual central performance from Peruvian actress Magali Solier and sparkle by the fantasy musical sequences which are threaded into the fabric of the picture. Sep 6, 2019 Full Review Rodrigo Portales Cinencuentro Disenfranchises itself from the habitual representation of immigrants that's seen in contemporary Latin American cinema. [Full review in Spanish] Oct 3, 2022 Full Review Sebastian Zavala Kahn Cinencuentro A very good drama with interesting musical touches, which feels different from what is usually produced in Peru and in Latin America in general. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Apr 2, 2022 Full Review Cathy Brennan WeLoveCinema All the parts are here for a great film, yet they never come together in a satisfying way. Rated: 2/5 Aug 23, 2021 Full Review María Fernanda Mugica La Nación (Argentina) The film unequivocally but subtly presents the economic and social inequalities suffered by Lina... but without making her the victim or the hero.
