Ask for tolerance
However, Pimentel also asked for tolerance from some people, especially those who do not like the film. Likewise, the actor invited his followers to watch the film to form their own opinion of him.
“This film has brought to light many critics who use inadmissible qualifiers for this time that hurt me. “I leave everything in the hands of God and I thank the public that defends me,” he commented.
On the other hand, Ernesto maintained that it is a film that represents cinema in all its senses and that is focused on telling a story.
