Natalia Winkelman New York Times The film might aim to deliver an aesthetic and emotional jolt, but it is the mundane, interpersonal moments that linger. May 18, 2023 Full Review Cath Clarke Guardian Though she might have turned the dial up, Burkovska conveys Lilya’s depression and anxiety, and finally her resilience, with a muted, powerful performance. Rated: 3/5 May 15, 2023 Full Review Jessica Kiang Variety Interesting to analyse in formal terms, especially in its sometimes effective, sometimes glib use of modern tech. Jun 6, 2022 Full Review Dennis Harvey 48 Hills It’s not the greatest movie ever about PTSD, or even about the war in Ukraine. But its tough-minded, empathetic integrity always feels authentic. Jun 2, 2023 Full Review Rich Cline Shadows on the Wall The film is less timely than timeless, with scenes that are packed with complex issues and personal nuance. And as it takes on bigger ideas, this clear-eyed but over-serious film becomes often unnervingly resonant. Rated: 4/5 May 9, 2023 Full Review Amber Wilkinson Eye for Film Lilya’s treatment while captive is only glimpsed in brief flashbacks, which avoid voyeurism and suddenly occur like glitches in the film, the image pixellating as though it is buffering, to reveal a scrap of memory.
