David Lamble Bay Area Reporter This quirky comedy goes through a couple of identity crises before it settles into an offbeat romantic caper film. May 9, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Kinda boring and the ending sucks. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member there were no attractive female leads but it still made for a rather compelling watch- an israeli mom and a nigerian nanny, the premise alone warranted a watch. sincere, moving film. this was one of those that'd have you sighing and dying for a cig and drink after the credits roll. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Really nice movie. Very good acting. Very well done. I have to say that I enjoy more independent films, than alot of so-called big blockbusters. They put alot of effort into us really feeling strongly for these characters, and it worked....for me especially. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Fantastic drama. The actresses/actors have portrayed their characters well. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member I really lliked this film. I thought it was a beautiful story that was written and shot well. I love it because it's culturally important. Despite dragging in a few areas, it was well worth seeing:) Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Very nice film. Sensitive. About discovering one's sexual identity and impossible lesbian love. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews
