A little boy is adopted by a pack of wild dogs while living on the streets.

Tara Brady

Irish Times

Experimental film can be a euphemism for half-baked, but there's unorthodox and compelling architecture at play here.

Rated: 4/5

Observer (UK)

Ultimately, whatever one takes from this overwhelming collage of sound and vision will be wholly personal.

Rated: 4/5

Sight & Sound

The focus on a social outcast allows Ktting to push Lek to the furthest periphery yet, while the play's multimedia texture prefigures his employment of various visual and formal techniques that blur recollection, imagination and warped psychology.

Millicent Thomas

Screen Queens

A bold outing that blurs the lines between film and contemporary art, but leaves the viewer disconnected.

Rated: 2/5

Edward Porter

Sunday Times (UK)

This thematic hodgepodge...is a mixed bag in terms of quality, too. For every riveting, eerie scene, there's another that looks like low-budget padding.

Rated: 3/5

Amber Wilkinson

Eye for Film

Ktting's real skill comes in the marrying together of images with Lek's memories, pushing at ideas of desolation, anxiety and trauma that take us into emotional territory that mere words cannot."

Rated: 4/5
