Financing

Controversy

After its premiere, congresswoman Milagros Jáuregui de Aguayo of Renovación Popular spoke out against the film on social networks because, according to her, "evangelical believers are mentioned in a derogatory and negative way, which notoriously promotes religious discrimination ", and sent a letter to the Minister of Culture Gisela Ortiz asking for explanations about the financing and cultural contribution of the production. The director Wesley Verástegui responded to the parliamentarian that it is the members of his evangelical community who discriminate against the LGBT community.
