Andrew Barker Variety 05/02/2020
For those who couldn't tell you the difference between a Mellotron and a Mu-Tron, this amiably aimless film may prove patience-testing with its languid narrative rhythms, thinly sketched characters and on-the-nose electro evangelism. Go to Full Review
Kevin Maher The Times (UK) 09/13/2019
4/5
A beguiling central performance and a near-numinous belief in the transformative power of music are the highlights of this modest yet perfectly formed French-language drama about the origins of synthesizer pop. Go to Full Review
Ian Freer Empire Magazine 09/11/2019
3/5
Driven by a great turn from Alma Jodorowsky, it celebrates the creation and possibilities of music through a distinctly female filter. Go to Full Review

While the story is paint by numbers, the idea is a fresh one. The ideas are not as fleshed out as they could be, but there is a lot of charm. Great soundtrack. Go to Full Review

2.5/5
Collin brings to the screen a different type of music film. One in which people do not sit behind a drum kit or at a piano bench, instead we watch a young woman tap on different machines. Go to Full Review
Allen Adams The Maine Edge 11/17/2020
4/5
It's leisurely and languid, the type of film that cares far less about plot than it does about the overall vibe. Often, that sort of attitude only serves to undermine the viewing experience. Here, it enhances it. Go to Full Review
