Elizabeth Kerr The Hollywood Reporter Running to the Sky has no grand statements to make, and no hot-button issues to deal with, but it does paint a delicate and layered portrait of everyday life for one young boy as he bears more weight than he should for his age. Oct 14, 2019 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Abdykalykov's story is slight but its roots go deep. Rated: 3/5 Mar 6, 2020 Full Review Katie Goh The Skinny Shot with documentary-like restraint, Running to the Sky is an empathetic and mature sketch of a young man finding his feet. Rated: 4/5 Mar 3, 2020 Full Review Allan Hunter Screen International A coming of age drama told with such charm and sensitivity that it registers high on the likeability scale.
