[A] dreary Canadian drama. Go to Full Review Miriam Bale New York Times 10/24/2013
4/5
Ms. Jaye uses sound, composition and careful patience to create a contemplative mood of memory, loss and magic. With limited resources and the power of storytelling, she has created a small film that feels mainstream and epic. Go to Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews 11/10/2017

There's a truly wrenching, decades-spanning, war-torn love story trying to escape from this overly restrained fable. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

01/10/2014 A mediocre film that steps its audience through predictable paces. The characters convey no sense of presence and possess little depth. It would have made a better impression had it been shortened and presented as a student film. See more 11/02/2013 An effective little movie about the remembrance of a brief relationship. Might have been improved with a bit more development but, as is, it might more effectively relate the transient impermanence of experience. See more Read all reviews
