Jay Weissberg Variety A rare observational documentary that recognizes the beauty of spatial forms without forgetting the individuals who inhabit those voids. Feb 21, 2018 Full Review Javier Rueda Caimán Cuadernos de Cine An exhaustive study of a place, its spaces and the people who inhabit it. [Full review in Spanish] Dec 4, 2020 Full Review Arlin Golden Film Inquiry It is an experience characterized by persistent ennui, which perhaps doesn't make for the most engaging film, but it's valuable nonetheless for illuminating this hidden world. Apr 27, 2019 Full Review Bobby LePire Film Threat Central Airport THF avoids the pitfalls of many observational documentaries by zeroing on one person's plight. Rated: 8/10 Apr 16, 2019 Full Review Peter Sobczynski eFilmCritic.com This is an engrossing work by director Karim Ainouz that captures a particular sociopolitical moment in time in ways both educational and compassionate.
