Cast

Production

The film was produced by Teoponte PC, Monte Film and Viernes Producciones, with support from Junta de Extremadura.[5] Shooting locations included the city of Cáceres, in Extremadura.[6]

Release

On 18 April 2010, the film screened at the Málaga Spanish Film Festival (FMCE), where it was met with acclaim.[5][1] Distributed by A Contracorriente Films, it was theatrically released in Spain on 19 November 2010.[4]

Reception

Jonathan Holland of Variety deemed the film to be "a quietly engrossing debut for helmer/co-writer Juana Macias that unpacks the crosscut lives of four women in crisis".[3]

Reviewing for El País, Javier Ocaña considered the film to be a "notable debut" for Macías, highlighting as virtues the subtlety of the script, the magnificent performances, and the agile staging.[7]

Both Ocaña and Holland observed a resemblance in several ways to the 2000 film Amores perros (which also stars Goya Toledo).[7][3]

Fausto Fernández of Fotogramas gave the film 3 out of 5 stars, highlighting the teen contrast offered by Aura Garrido's performance, whereas he cited the presence of egalitarian cliches as a negative point.[8]
