Dorothy Woodend The Tyee (British Columbia) Director Flávia Neves has a keen eye and great capacity for finding beauty, whether in the dusty landscape of rural Brazil or the worn faces of the townspeople. Unfortunately, some of the dramatic happenings are a little overwrought. Oct 10, 2022 Full Review Jay Weissberg The Film Verdict Debuting director Flvia Neves throws far too many elements into her overstuffed Gothic-tinged plot, intriguing enough to hold attention but too convoluted to withstand criticism.
