The closing titles contain a dedication to two directors dead the same day, July 30, 2007, Ingmar Bergman and Michelangelo Antonioni, while filming was underway.
Reception
Peter Brunette of The Hollywood Reporter gave the film an unfavorable review, saying, "Every time the film goes philosophical on us, the resulting dialogue is sententious and banal."[4] Todd McCarthy of Variety said, "Although she can’t save the film from its own silliness, Mezzogiorno does provide a gravity and legitimacy of her own, as her mesmerizing eyes and her excellent delivery in English make a dramatic highlight out of a monologue about a personal tragedy, as well as showing up Campino for the non-actor he is."[5]
At the 2009 Sofia International Film Festival, the film won the Bourgas Municipality prize.[6]
