Peter Bradshaw

Guardian

It's a gentle film, which leaves it up to us to decide whether or not Fahed's decisions are the right ones.

Rated: 3/5

Eye for Film

This is, on the surface of it a consideration of what it means to be an "exile"...More fundamentally, however, this is a study of working-class loneliness.

Rated: 3/5

Rated: 7/10

HeyUGuys

A competent and occasionally poignant slice-of-life depiction of an anxious life in an indifferent world.

Rated: 3/5

The Film Stage

Fahed's adventure is bittersweet and devoid of answers, [but] I wonder if the topic would have been better served and more potently told as a short film half the length.

Rated: C

Meg Shields

Cinema Scope

As a record of someone with a foot in two cultures, the loneliness that stalks Fahed across borders feels less like cultural whiplash than the condition of someone paralyzed by their own indecision.
