I Am Yours is a pensive, perceptive study of a woman adrift whose expectations of a relationship are never quite matched.

Guardian

Acharia's electric performance is impressive, while director Iram Haq brings an insider's sympathy to the protagonist's plight.

Rated: 3/5

Little White Lies

Haq has the storytelling style of a lawyer calmly presenting the facts of a case leaving it to the audience to decide whether to focus judgment on Mina or unsympathetic circumstances.

Rated: 4/5

CineVue

With room to breathe, [director Iram Haq] deftly explores the tensions existing within the life of a woman who is of two worlds, torn by the desire to honor all people at all times and maintain a strong sense of identity.

Rated: 3/5

The List

Anchored by a splendid lead performance from Amrita Acharia, but a little directionless otherwise ...

We follow a young Pakistani woman living in Oslo. She's a single mother and is searching for love. Not the biggest of plots but it works pretty good. The structure is not all that and it just passes by. It's predictable in a way, but some twist do take place. It fails to make me very engaged in Mina's life, despite the character building that's quite nice. It never really grip me, but it develop nicely and I especially enjoy the last third of it. A decent debut, but it's rearly above average on most levels. Sometimes it's rather good, but other times it almost looses my attention. 5.5 out of 10 akward moments delt with by dancing.

The battle between the longing for the security and comfort we hope to find in relationships (with the risks and effort that go along with it) and the pull toward the security and comfort of aloneness (with the loneliness and fear that can accompany it).

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

A sad and lonely tale of a divorced young Norwegian mother seeking a partner. Amina, played by Amrita Acharia, magically falls for a Swedish screenwriter but her young son complicates the relationship. Somewhat mundane but highly evocative.
