Richard Brody The New Yorker One of the most fertile and furious blends of literature and cinema... Nov 16, 2020 Full Review Dustin Chang Floating World It goes completely bonkers in the last 30 minutes as things turn completely surreal. Huppert gives all to her blistering performance as a woman who desperately needs to validate her existence. Jan 22, 2025 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com It's a distressing portrait of a woman in the process of a slow-burn self-immolation. And perhaps at last, three decades after its release, we can rediscover the brilliance of Bachmann. Rated: 4.5/5 Nov 25, 2020 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews It's a grim film, but I did find it provocative, intellectually stimulating and unique. Rated: B+ Nov 20, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Huppert is specially incredible here. The "metaphor" and "slice of life" scenes work equally beautiful. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Could be nearly as painful to view as the woman in the film is tortured by her nightmares. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Read all reviews
