While this can feel too dry, especially in the film's extremely conventional documentary style... it is undeniable that the subject is a necessary one to learn more about, and we can thank Obomsawin for depicting it so thoroughly.

Rated: 3/5

Josh Cabrita

Cinema Scope

But what remains, even as the camera awkwardly wobbles through hallways in stilted pillow shots, is the director's empathetic ear, which has always been her most valuable asset and more than makes up for any dearth of formal ingenuity.

NOW Toronto

This film functions as both cinema and journalism, the camera pushing us into a world we might not otherwise see and illuminating that world on a human scale.

Rated: 4/5

Obomsawin shows no signs of slowing down, and the fire that drives her cause is still burning away.
