Jordan Mintzer The Hollywood Reporter This beautifully photographed tale of religion, redemption and repressed sensuality can lumber at times due to the heavy-handedness of the scenario, though the many verbal duels between the two leads are also what make it work. Mar 7, 2017 Full Review Lisa Nesselson Screen International A solid, consistently compelling look at the big questions of life laced into the framework of a transformative meeting of the minds under dicey circumstances.

Audience Member Although the topic of the film may not appeal to everyone, i found the film to well shot, interesting and entertaining. The two leads have a good alchemy on screen and make the entire story believable and quite suspenseful. Sure here and there some of the facial expression of Duris are not entirely convincing but overall the film holds itself quite well and Marine Vacth definitely has a brooding fever in the eyes that makes her undeniably fascinating to watch on screen. Nicolas Boukhrief has made a solid film about faith and spirituality while updating the grand questions of life and the meaning of our actions as human beings. I'm glad i went to watch this film. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews
