Nick Schager Variety The director's approach casts a strange, despondent spell. May 4, 2017 Full Review Felipe Rodríguez Torres Caimán Cuadernos de Cine A work that combines equal parts a magnified realism... and a magical fairy tale realism. [Full review in Spanish Dec 7, 2020 Full Review Vassilis Kroustallis Film Is A Fine Affair Son of Sofia needs to expand its individual isolation story in a manner more solid and conspicuous; but the coming-of-age story, which is effectively thwarted, is evidenced in this crisply edited film, full of fairytale characters vying for attention.
