      Amber Wilkinson Eye for Film If it loses something in terms of definitive events, it gains a more poetic fluidity from the approach. Rated: 4/5 Apr 2, 2023 Full Review Carlos Bonfil La Jornada In addition to being a tribute to a poet who was continuously sabotaged by an omnipotent government, the film recaptures history and is an original posthumous vindication [of Thomas Brasch]. [Full review in Spanish] Aug 22, 2022 Full Review Dennis Harvey 48 Hills It’s a portrait of familiar bohemian excesses made less so by taking place (mostly) behind the Iron Curtain, and considerably juiced by the inventiveness of both lead actor and filmmaker.
