Reception
Emily Maskell of Little White Lies wrote that while the film's dialogue occasionally "borders on cliché", the film's "diligence in rejecting queer abandonment allows for a sincere portrayal of lesbian love where obstacles are presented in isolation from sexuality, an exemption that feels particularly poignant."

Phuong Le of The Guardian rated the film 3 stars out of 5 and wrote that while the film has several "heavy-handed moments", it is still a "poignant study of a young woman struggling to stay afloat."
