[Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/5 Mar 9, 2023 Full Review Carlos Losilla Caimán Cuadernos de Cine An even more conservative film than those social models it tries to question. [Full review in Spanish] Nov 8, 2022 Full Review David Walsh World Socialist Web Site Sonne is lively and often amusing, the girls are energetic and irrepressible, irreverent.
