The film screened at the 15th L'Alfàs del Pi Film Festival in July 2003.[4] Distributed by Warner Sogefilms,[1] it was released theatrically in Spain on 22 August 2003.[2] It opened to a so-so €222,000 opening weekend gross at the domestic box office, but good word-of-mouth took it to €1.1 million after four weeks.[3]

Reception

Jonathan Holland of Variety considered that the helmers' disposable work in earlier films "settles down into something like maturity without losing its contempo edge, and first-rate performances discover unsuspected depths in the derivative, over-the-top plotline about people frantically trying to improve their lot".[1]

Jennifer Green of ScreenDaily deemed to film to be a "a sharp yet ultimately gentle comedy".[3]
