Peter Bradshaw Guardian This is an intriguing debut from Kocur. Rated: 4/5 Nov 27, 2023 Full Review Rich Cline Shadows on the Wall Writer-director Damian Kocur has a terrific eye for real-life interaction, so the thoughtful central character draws us in, even if his journey remains stubbornly off-camera. Rated: 3/5 Apr 18, 2023 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film At key moments, director Damian Kocur slows his camera right down. We drift through the estate, through the sort of spaces which an architect might have thought would look pretty, with no idea how disaffected young people would use them. Rated: 4/5 Mar 10, 2023 Full Review Allan Hunter Screen International Non-professional actors add to the authentic feel of a film that builds like a volcano preparing to erupt.
