Siddhant Adlakha Village Voice Shot with the manic verve of an amateur travel vlog, twenty-year-old Yoko Yamanaka's surreal debut captures the unspoken, often inarticulable facets of modern youth. Jul 18, 2018 Full Review Clarence Tsui The Hollywood Reporter [A] sharp, succinct portrait of a confused adolescent's growing pains and suburban angst. Mar 19, 2018 Full Review Elena Lazic Seventh Row Amiko's nonlinear association of thoughts and ideas, sign of a lively mind, determine the film's structure and its form... The film itself does not let its low budget stand in the way of visually daring and imaginative shots and sequences. Oct 8, 2018 Full Review Shelagh Rowan-Legg ScreenAnarchy With the actions of its characters becoming both increasingly dangerous, and all too believable, Amiko is another strange yet poignant look at the complications of youth. Jul 31, 2018 Full Review Rebecca Pahle Film Journal International An uncompromising, original coming-of-age film. Jul 24, 2018 Full Review Sarah Boslaugh TheArtsStl Amiko mixes up a lot of different filmmaking styles, mirroring the disordered and ever-changing emotional world of the central character.
