Marko Stojiljković, reviewing the film at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival for
Cineuropa, wrote that it has an open-ended narrative and unconventional storytelling. He further opined that it presents an extraordinary life experience that challenges viewers’ expectations, provoking diverse reactions ranging from intrigue to exasperation. Stojiljković commended Miro Remo and Dušan Husár for their cinematography, and highlighted Maté Csuport’s editing for establishing a rhythmic portrayal of the protagonists’ lives. However, he found Adam Matej’s classical-influenced score overly blunt, noting it failed to cohesively bridge the film’s narrative transitions. Concluding the review he observed, "... but it certainly makes for a unique film." Guy Lodge, reviewing the film for
Variety, wrote that it is a poetic and an eccentric documentary. He opined that adapted in part from Aleš Palán’s book, the film employs lyrical narration and observational footage to explore the philosophical reflections and intense interpersonal dynamic of the protagonist duo. Lodge noted that the documentary presents an intimate and contemplative portrait of unconventional rural life through rich cinematography and a whimsical tone.
