Xavier lives in Miraflores and, following his father's wishes, studies law at the University of Lima. On the other hand, Soledad is a student at the National University of San Marcos, with the aspiration of becoming an outstanding ballet dancer.

Reception Rodrigo Portales from Cinencuentro negatively criticized the film due to the poor acting of Alec Chaparro, one of the protagonists, who fails to express his feelings and whose voice seems to have been superimposed on the original voice. Furthermore, he criticized the superficiality of the main plot, whose main theme of racism and social problems isn't explored in depth.
