It was screened in the Contemporary World Cinema section at the 2013 Toronto International Film Festival. Luminita Gheorghiu was nominated as the Best Actress at the 26th European Film Awards and the film won the Telia Film Award at the 2013. The film was selected as the Romanian entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 86th Academy Awards, but it was not nominated.
The film was initially refused financing by the Romanian film board due its controversial depiction of the Hungarian minority in Romania. After an intervention by the Minister of Culture, Hunor Kelemen the ruling of the film board was overruled.
