The second feature film by Mexican director David Pablos (The Life After) approaches a highly charged topic with great sensibility and with impeccable cinematography and acting. Film critic Avner Shavit (Walla!) praised the film, writing that "the director successfully depicts a world that lost all humanity while avoiding sensationalism or provocation."
