Jan 12, 2024 Full Review Glenn Dunks The Film Experience Stephenson's film is confronting and even radical as it points to corruption and systemic abuse. It's final title cards are hardly shocking. Rated: B+ Jun 20, 2021 Full Review Ricardo Gallegos La Estatuilla Through an intimate approach, Stephenson successfully presents the different facets of a cultural and social conflict deeply rooted in hate.
