Critical response[edit]

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 83% based on 6 reviews, with an average rating of 6.8/10.[4]

Jonathan Holland of The Hollywood Reporter deemed the film to be "an unsettling, minimalist meditation on the hidden dangers of teen romance", otherwise signalling its director "as someone who's already marked out his own distinctive style".[3]

Andrea G. Bermejo of Cinemanía rated Stockholm 4 out 5 stars, summing it up to be a "little film with a surprise and a great Aura Garrido".[5]
