William Stottor Loud and Clear Reviews Visually ravishing and exquisitely detailed, A Distant Place observes a deep, beautiful love knocked down by society and its horrific bigotry. Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 18, 2024 Full Review Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Movie Pulse Has some issues with the writing and characterization, and on occasion, the solutions Park has picked seem somewhat too easy. However, the comments about rural life, discrimination and family are well communicated, while visually the film is stunning Rated: 6 Apr 16, 2023 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film It's a remarkably accomplished piece of storytelling. Rated: 4.5/5 Aug 4, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews
