Reception


Paula Arantzazu Ruiz of Cinemanía rated the film 3 out of 5 stars, writing that "encouraged by a suggestive clash between reality and virtuality", "the classic generational conflict" is resolved by Amodeo "with an unexpected and conventional way out", perhaps excessive for the reviewer, summing up as a bottom line: "live fast, die young and leave a beautiful story on Instagram".[8]

Eulàlia Iglesia of Fotogramas also scored 3 out of 5 stars, considering that Amodeo "records with enviable naturalness the disorientation of youth in the time of social media", while citing the "excessive" shock value of the final twist as a negative point.[9]

Javier Ocaña of El País considered the film to be "a story of exultant attitude and overwhelming personality in its young female characters".[10]
