The film was theatrically released in Italy by Notorious Pictures on 7 February 2019. [2] [3]
La Repubblica critic Roberto Nepoti praised the Puglielli's touch, "that throughout the film retains a fairy-tale tone in tune with Anselmo's [film's main character] worldview", and marked the film as "gentle and in its own way courageous". [4] Simone Emiliani from Sentieri selvaggi described it as a mix of genres, "full of interesting suggestions and insights" but "uneven", where the two main actors appear "at times lost in dealing with continually shifting registers".
