Wendy Ide Screen International This is an ambitious and confident first feature, yet it is hampered by a screenplay that is intent on emphasising the most obvious points about the issue rather than offering a new perspective. Feb 28, 2024 Full Review Robert Daniels RogerEbert.com This is a film that treasures misery as a vehicle for tension, but rarely as a chance for humanism to arise. By the end, Andersen has shaken, jarred and overwhelmed his audience so much that he forgets how to inspire them. Feb 24, 2024 Full Review Sarah Manvel Critic's Notebook This movie wants noble suffering and to make the rest of us feel bad. This is not a badly made film, not at all, but it puts its thumb on the scale so hard we know we’re being cheated. It’s a remarkable shame. Mar 1, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
