Mar 16, 2021 Full Review Carson Lund Slant Magazine Compellingly and surprisingly, the film doesn't propose an entirely celebratory view of our accountability-seeking present. Rated: 3.5/4 Mar 4, 2021 Full Review A.S. Hamrah The Baffler Filled with birdsong on the soundtrack, stitched together with fast tracking shots and whip pans, it's beautiful, too.
