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." 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." 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."
