Feb 15, 2025 Full Review Andrew Murray The Upcoming Carried by an unwaveringly fantastic performance from Bloching, Miro Fischer tests how far familial loyalty can stretch in an emotionally resonating debutwhich marks the start of what could be a promising career. Rated: 4/5 Feb 27, 2025 Full Review Stephen Saito Moveable Fest What goes on elsewhere may be abstract in “The Good Sister,” but Fischer makes clear it’s all our problem.

Rated: 4/5 Feb 15, 2025 Full Review Gustavo Herrera Taboada Cinencuentro The success of the film lies in an intimate, non-judgmental look that merely observes the martyrdom that the protagonist goes through when she cannot reconcile her feelings with her moral integrity.
