Cast
Production The film is a Benjamín PC and Patagonik Film Group production. The director pitched the film as an "unpretentious amusement about lies".
Release The film screened in the 'Panorámica' section of the Seville Film and Sport Festival in November 2002. Distributed by United International Pictures, it was released theatrically in Spain on 10 January 2003.
Reception Jonathan Holland of Variety deemed the "disappointing" comedy film to weld "a hackneyed plotline to intermittently amusing perfs".
Casimiro Torreiro of El País concluded that the film "is a comedy as licitly ambitious as it is unfortunate and failed, as unbalanced on the inside as it is banal and pedestrian on the surface".
La Nación gave the film a 'bad' review, considering that "it is absolutely impossible to deduce what the makers of this Argentine-Spanish co-production wanted to aim for".
