Peter Bradshaw Guardian A very intriguing film, gentle, quietist, transcendental. Rated: 4/5 Jun 17, 2020 Full Review Jay Weissberg Variety More than merely respectful, the film succeeds in showing a self-sufficient society aware of the outside world yet choosing to remain true to its traditions and distinct rhythm of life. May 26, 2018 Full Review Stephen Dalton Hollywood Reporter The Dead and the Others is an admirably committed enterprise. Sadly, as a cinematic experience, it is flat and functional. May 17, 2018 Full Review Tom Baily The Arts Desk It is a film of startling visual power and mood, with a drifting storyline that becomes bizarrely captivating. Rated: 4/5 Jun 27, 2020 Full Review Adrián Monserrat EscribiendoCine The film throws us into a bath of reality in the midst of a dizzying context of the racial displacement by world leaders. [Full Review in Spanish] Rated: 7/10 Aug 14, 2019 Full Review Mirito Torreiro Fotogramas A cinematic allegation that, without a doubt, would have excited the filmmaker Jean Rouch.
