A thoughtful, moving yet almost constantly out of reach meditation of things much bigger than the sum of its parts. Go to Full Review Jake Wilson The Age (Australia) 08/20/2020
Where a director like Yorgos Lanthimos (The Lobster) builds a parallel universe from scratch in each film, the oddest thing about Kala Azar is that nothing happens here that couldn't happen in the real world. Go to Full Review Wendy Ide Screen International 01/27/2020
Kala Azar is something rather special. It's foetid and atmospheric, a feral scavenger of a film which sniffs around its themes before sinking its teeth into the meat of a beasts' eye view of the breakdown of civilisation. Go to Full Review Steven Warner In Review Online 06/06/2021
It's at roughly the 20-minute mark of this nonsense that viewers' eyes may be lost in the back of their heads. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
