Reception

In a mainly positive review for the Krakow Post Giuseppe Sedia wrote: "Smoczynska's self-sustaining talent is capable of shining with its own light even without the sequins from her daring debut effort", adding however that it "could crush the hopes of the viewers pursuing extravagance or originality at any cost".^[3]
