A creative woman becomes disenchanted with what modern life, and modern men, have to offer.

Cath Clarke

Guardian

You've got to admire Appignanesi's intellectual curiosity and total disregard for marketability in making such an unslick movie.

Rated: 3/5

Little White Lies

The sort of film that sticks in your psyche and pops up when you least expect it.

Rated: 4/5

Times (UK)

Like a micro-budget Don't Look Now crossed with a rogue episode of The South Bank Show, and all the better for that.

Rated: 4/5

Joey Keogh

Vague Visages

The behind-the-scenes glimpse at the world she inhabits is fascinating but, again, all too fleeting. The thriller elements, meanwhile, are neither fleshed out enough to garner any actual fear, nor left unknown to the point of requiring further reflection.

Film Inquiry

Josh Appignanesi's new feature film is an impressive blend of fact and fiction which successfully evades our preconceived ideas about genre to present itself as something radically bold, new and different.

Charlie Phillips

Observer (UK)

It's trying something truly bizarre that punctures the pretentiousness of the art world while also, of course, being rather pretentious - and it's a triumph.
