The film’s ethical tension lies in its refusal to either condemn or romanticize Kika’s choices: Instead, it watches her negotiate some form of agency within the confines of an economy that commodifies her body and actions. Go to Full Review Alex Billington FirstShowing.net Jul 20

Ultimately, the film's story is unique and compelling, but also too grandiose and convoluted. This is where the filmmaking makes up for it. Go to Full Review Hector A. Gonzalez InSession Film Jun 11
