Aug 21, 2023 Full Review Lisa Nystrom FILMINK (Australia) … while beautiful in its own unhurried way, struggles to sustain the feature-length runtime. Rated: 10.5/20 Feb 13, 2024 Full Review Carlos Losilla Caimán Cuadernos de Cine Wu proceeds by splintering the plot into brief flashes that hide others, telling some things but not all, so it is up to the audience to give a final shape to the puzzle. [Full review in Spanish] Oct 3, 2023 Full Review Sean Gilman In Review Online At every turn, Absence appears like it’s going to turn into a kind of a movie we’ve seen before... But just when we think we’re settling into some kind of romantic noir... Absence shifts once more into something much more special and original. Apr 8, 2023 Full Review Sarah Manvel Critic's Notebook Uunfortunately all this beauty and cleverness doesn't make up for a plot which resolves none of its own central questions, and which blows the ending.
