Robert Abele Los Angeles Times 15h
Our Land is the work of a director whose attention is rigorous, whose care is genuine, but who is also conscious of her outsider’s perspective. It’s an ally’s respect. Go to Full Review
David Jenkins Little White Lies 3d
4/5
The film ends up delivering a rousing case for not only opening up the miniature borders that crisscross this sceptred isle, but in a way that would prove the most humiliating for the bastards with the keys to the padlocks. Go to Full Review
Alissa Wilkinson New York Times May 1
Stories that Chuschagasta men and women tell Martel... bear witness to other Indigenous people who, like Chocobar, suffered or died defending their ancestral land, but without cameras there to watch, and only the community left to tell their stories. Go to Full Review

A beautifully crafted, complex entity that rewards on a lot of levels. Go to Full Review

4/5

Erik Reeds Spectrum Culture May 5
For fans of Lucrecia Martel, a detour from her usual narrative works may come as a surprise, but Our Land retains much of the social commentary of such films. Go to Full Review
