Ryan Devir Film Threat Writer/Director Katja Gauriloff’s film Je’vida captures everything on camera and provides a taste of clean water in the film age of Coca-Cola. Rated: 8.5/10 Jan 3, 2024 Full Review Elena Lazic Cineuropa The film is ultimately more a document of atrocities than a portrait of its titular protagonist. Sep 21, 2023 Full Review Peter Sobczynski The Spool This is a strong and assured filmmaking debut that ... shines a light on the myriad ways in which an entire culture has been systematically threatened with eradication and how it has still managed to survive those efforts. Sep 21, 2023 Full Review Louisa Moore Screen Zealots A heartbreaking yet empowering film about reclaiming your roots and your true self in a world that would rather ignore your existence. Sep 20, 2023 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...the eye-opening emphasis on the character’s grim experiences within a state-run residential school for indigenous children certainly enhancing the movie’s increasingly engaging atmosphere. Rated: 2.5/4 Sep 14, 2023 Full Review Sherin Nicole AWFJ.org Gauriloff shoots Je’vida in the classic 4:3 ratio. That choice combined with the moody blacks, stark whites, and shadowy grays in between, immerses us in this meditation on memory and the magnetism of identity.
