Reception
Joseph Proimakis of Cineuropa wrote that the film "mercilessly bites into one of the darkest traits of any modern multicultural society and turns it on its head, all the while holding onto its humanistic sensibilities and maintaining a delicate balance between the universal social commentary and the specificity of the hero’s story." Kirk Honeycutt of The Hollywood Reporter wrote that the film offers "wry wisdom and steady laughs in its acute observation about a formerly heterogeneous society’s confrontation with otherness." Jay Weissberg of Variety called the film a "weak comedy with few laughs and little insight." ==References==
