Controversy

edit

A day and a half after the premiere, the functions of the Cineplanet Alcazar cinema chain scheduled for Friday, Saturday and Sunday were suddenly canceled due to "emergency maintenance" (a similar situation happened with The Bad Intentions).[7] Those responsible for the film, Raul del Busto and Cyntia Inamine, expressed their discomfort and discontent with the cinema chain,[8] and also proclaimed that they would denounce Cineplanet for an attempted boycott.[9]

5 days later, the Peruvian Association of Cinematographic Press (APRECI) proclaimed itself against Cineplanet and invoking the authorities to enforce the law.[10]
