He stated that he was very happy with the acceptance and visitor numbers in the movie theaters, but he also referred to the various negative comments after the premiere and defended the work of which he was a part.
“What happens is that I feel that people are interpreting it as if the film were a documentary. In reality, once Ernesto Pimentel told his story, it became fiction. For example: Coco Marusix (in the film) not only represents her, but also Naamin Timoyco and so many people from the LGBTIQ+ community who have been around Ernesto.

“To begin with, (for those who) have not seen the film, at no time are the characters defined with an archetype of bad or good. In life we are the good or the bad in other people's lives. To appeal to the fact that one character is being painted as specifically bad and that the other is completely victimized, I feel is completely misguided.“, he stated.
