      Claudia Puig FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) A really intriguing way to make a film... A well done and profound [documentary]. Mar 21, 2023 Full Review Glenn Kenny New York Times The film is an unusually layered look at how the combination of privation, misplaced familial loyalty and just plain rotten luck can make the immigrant experience in America a nightmare. Mar 2, 2023 Full Review Wes Greene Slant Magazine Sansón and Me has a way of frustratingly pulling focus away from its ostensible subject. Rated: 2.5/4 Feb 27, 2023 Full Review Dennis Harvey 48 Hills ...it’s still an exceptionally vivid capture of how the system (on either side of our southern border) seems to ensure some lives prosper, while others are deemed throwaways. Mar 20, 2023 Full Review Amber Wilkinson Eye for Film This film is taking a much more sobering sweep than more frequently made films about jail time, which tend to end with exoneration or freedom, which Reyes notes from the start is not within this documentary’s gift. Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 19, 2022 Full Review Gary M. Kramer MovieJawn Poignant and lyrical.... . This is a sad, sobering film, about lives that are wasted. Jul 15, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews
