Guy Lodge Variety An uneven balance of grainy social realism and crowd-pleasing uplift, but Cruz’s resolute performance just about holds it together. Feb 19, 2025 Full Review Juan Pablo Russo EscribiendoCine Without melodramatic concessions or forced twists, the film exposes the cycle of violence and the lack of institutional support, confronting society with a reality that it prefers to ignore.
