John Beifuss Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) The rotoscoped animation keeps things interesting: The characters, who sometimes move in front of blurred live-action backgrounds, seem composed of bold lines and broad planes of color that waver and vibrate with a watery instability.

Audience Member i loved how the simple lines brought out the inner world of this shy and often conflicted character. very believable and likeable. well done!! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Emotionally-moving & realistic picture of life as a Colombian public servant. The animation is intentionally simplistic with flickering outlines and beady eyes, but is also frequently overlaid on a defocused photographic backdrop. This captures to good effect, the feeling of isolation perceived by the protagonist. The shy-club side plot was good for laughs, and adds depth to his character. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Read all reviews
