Marc Savlov Austin Chronicle Through it all Philps keeps her camera low the better to represent the children's as-yet-unformed POV, both literally and emotionally. Rated: 3.5/5 Jan 12, 2021 Full Review Michael Ordoña Los Angeles Times There are moments of terrible sadness in the film, of course, but also some uplift; if only the experience had more form to it. Jan 11, 2021 Full Review Matt Zoller Seitz RogerEbert.com It has a knack for finding metaphors and symbols in everyday activities and images, and it presents these in a manner that suggests there's a world beyond the one that we can process with our brains and our senses. Rated: 4/4 Jan 8, 2021 Full Review Jeffrey M. Anderson San Francisco Examiner By cutting through philosophy or psychology and simply viewing it with a childlike purity, perhaps we come closer to understanding and accepting death. Rated: 3.5/4 Jan 28, 2021 Full Review Dennis Harvey 48 Hills Probing a very different kind of fraught child/parent dynamic... Jan 8, 2021 Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue Without turning maudlin, the film employs an observational approach, finding a delicate balance of humor and humanity.
