      Wendy Ide Observer (UK) An act of real artistic generosity and bravery on the part of Selby, who bares her rawest emotional wounds and shares her lowest moments on this quest to fill the missing parts of her life. Rated: 4/5 Apr 9, 2023 Full Review Marina Ashioti Little White Lies Lisa Selby demonstrates a compelling degree of artistic assurance. Rated: 4/5 Apr 6, 2023 Full Review Cath Clarke Guardian [A] frank, intimate and incredibly moving documentary... Rated: 4/5 Apr 4, 2023 Full Review Jay Weissberg The Film Verdict A riveting cine-memoir that breaks through all the pitfalls of film-as-therapy: it’s a deeply personal story with universal resonance, and it’s impossible not to be moved. Jun 6, 2023 Full Review Rich Cline Shadows on the Wall This film is intimate and almost startlingly confessional. It's also a work of art. Rated: 4/5 Apr 11, 2023 Full Review Edward Porter Sunday Times (UK) ... The film’s winding, contemplative structure is rewarding, and the story’s core subject is not obscure: it’s someone building a life in tough circumstances. Rated: 3/5 Apr 10, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
