Stephen A. Russell Orion's Shoulder (Substack) A must-see that transmogrifies the form, mainlining truth through affectation and turning it into a technicoloured musical ... Words don’t do it justice; just go. Nov 12, 2024 Full Review Àngel Quintana Caimán Cuadernos de Cine The result is a brilliant, disconcerting and absolutely magnetic film. [Full review in Spanish] Oct 29, 2024 Full Review Nilton Arana Cinencuentro Proudly queer, Reas establishes itself as a cinematographic experiment endowed with humanism; a playful and empowering look at those typically marginalized by society. [Full review in Spanish] Aug 12, 2024 Full Review Juan Pablo Russo EscribiendoCine Instead of perpetuating the cycle of violence and exclusion, Reas challenges us to imagine a future where justice is synonymous with empathy and compassion. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 8/10 Jun 3, 2024 Full Review Diego Batlle Otroscines.com Arias gives voice, empathy, and entity to non-normative people, allowing them the chance to open up and express themselves as they have never been able to do before. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Jun 3, 2024 Full Review Nicolás Medina FIPRESCI An irreverent dramatization of the prison life of these actresses-turned-characters in a film that moves completely away from the marginal porn-misery that has spread like a disease in recent Latin American cinema. Rated: 6/10 Mar 26, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
