‘Slow-burn, compelling and utterly unconventional.’ – inews
‘With its layered and rewardingly intricate script, this solid, unshowy film excels.’ – The
Guardian
‘A daring, long film that asks deep questions about its characters but gains its most power
by recognising that it doesn’t have all the answers.’ – rogerebert.com
‘An example of how a movie can succeed in multiple genres at once.’ – Slate
‘Its strength comes from its willingness to embrace ambiguity and a lack of closure in ways
that intrigue (rather than frustrate) the viewer.’ – James Berardinelli
