Alexandra Heller-Nicholas of the Alliance of Women Film Journalists called the film "an all-too-rare treasure, a sumptuous beast that both dazzles the eye and joyfully, playfully and willfully befuddles the brain."[5] Alan Ng of Film Threat called the film's production design "strangely beautiful", concluding that "Yannis Veslemes tells a story that is both grotesque and tender, capturing how love and grief can twist our own realities."[6] Amber Wilkinson of Screen International called the film a "delirious mix that features baroque body horror", and said that "for those who favour visceral visuals over strong storytelling, it's a stylish treat."[1]
