B+
Vera Gemma, playing a version of herself, is at first off-putting but quickly becomes an endearing and sympathetic figure...The film is a hypnotic hybrid about survival in a world that values money and celebrity above all else. Go to Full Review
Michael Sicinski In Review Online 08/07/2023
While Covi and Frimmel's film could have easily made a mockery of Vera Gemma, the directors instead explore hard, ineluctable truths about social isolation and personal risk. Go to Full Review
Carlos Bonfil La Jornada 07/03/2023
Vera Gemma possesses a vulnerability and a prolonged adolescent grace that makes her akin to the picturesque and fragile character played by Giulietta Massina in The Nights of Cabiria (Fellini, 1957). [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Vera has more genuine, credible, sincere, honest, and affectionate moments than disingenuous or underhanded ones. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
Paula Vázquez Prieto La Nación (Argentina) 05/04/2023
... A story filled with intrigue and surprises, an adventure that transcends its titular character that speaks about film and fame, of fathers and daughters. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
