Simran Hans Observer (UK) The film plays out as a love story rather than an issue film, with the couple's relationship soon becoming its most compelling element. Rated: 4/5 Apr 14, 2019 Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian What it arguably loses in discipline and focus... it gains in emotional openness. Rated: 3/5 Apr 11, 2019 Full Review Danny Leigh Financial Times Barker's film is revelatory, not least for how its scrapbook vignettes of everyday life can tell this story so well and at such human scale. Rated: 4/5 Apr 10, 2019 Full Review Edward Porter Sunday Times (UK) As a picture of love and determination, though, it's a poignant, valuable film. Rated: 4/5 Apr 15, 2019 Full Review Rob Aldam Backseat Mafia A beautiful documentary about gender identity and the long road to parenthood. Apr 9, 2019 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film A Deal With The Universe isn't the sensational story viewers might expect from its subject matter, but finds its own magic in the most ordinary of places. Rated: 3.5/5 Dec 13, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
