Erick Estrada Cinegarage A haunting mini drama... [Full review in Spanish] Jun 10, 2022 Full Review Barbara Shulgasser Common Sense Media The subjects in Swallow would make anyone cry -- poverty, sexual harassment, drug dealing, systemic corruption -- but the movie and all the characters are flat and emotionless. Rated: 2/5 Oct 12, 2021 Full Review Johnny Loftus Decider Swallow brings its characters and 1980s Lagos to life, and asks the central question: how far will you go to get by, while keeping your dignity intact?
