Variety

Memories of a Burning Body definitely has the power to move when Sudasassi Furniss ably turns most of the other obstacles presented by the sensitive material into strengths.

Observer (UK)

It all seems so effortless and natural that you don’t at first notice how complex the staging is and how pleasing the storytelling rhythms.

Rated: 4/5

Peter Bradshaw

Guardian

It is a tenderly conceived and well-acted film, but I wonder if conflating all three women’s experiences has supercharged and even overloaded the existence of the everywoman with universal pain.

Rated: 3/5
