Reception

Critical response

In a positive review for the Krakow Post Giuseppe Sedia commended the film for "the overwhelming use of grey in the superb cinematography by Romanian new wave hero Oleg Mutu" adding that "grey is also used to drench the stories of the four leading female roles in the monotony and dreariness of their daily life without Antonioni-esque cliches".^[4]
