Upon its release in Spain, Castillos de Cartón garnered attention for its explicit sexual content and raw depiction of bisexuality. Unlike Hollywood’s polished depictions of threesomes, García Ruiz opted for a realistic, almost documentary-style rawness. The film received mixed reviews: critics praised the performances of Ugarte (now an international star thanks to Money Heist ) and Mur, but some audiences found the narrative bleak and the emotional violence hard to watch.

Castillos de cartón is an adaptation of the novel by Almudena Grandes, an author famous for delving into the complexities of human desire. The story unfolds in the 1980s (though the film was made in 2009) at the prestigious Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando in Madrid. It follows three art students: María José (Adriana Ugarte), Jaime (Nilo Mur), and Marcos (Biel Duran). castillos de carton dvdripspanish2009
