Reception

Origo's Bori Bujdosó compared the film to Richard Linklater's Tape, which has a similar chamber play setting, and wrote that although this is nothing new in cinema, it has rarely been done before in a Hungarian film. She wrote that the film contains "Hollywood clichés" but complemented the pace and dialogues.

Lynden Barber of Australia's Special Broadcasting Service wrote:

For its first two thirds Dyga successfully keeps his drama aloft, aided by two exemplary performances and a directorial approach that privileges cinema rather than the filmed play the material might suggest. Sadly, though, when Eszti’s celebrity chef brother Gabor (Roland Rába) returns home, the story tosses away its credibility by relying on an outlandish coincidence that is meant to carry the force of revelation. ... Gábor Marosi's cinematography is burnished and moody, though this too-dark transfer annoyingly loses the image entirely in a few spots.
