Peter Bradshaw Guardian A meditation pregnant with ideas. Rated: 3/5 Aug 13, 2020 Full Review Siddhant Adlakha Slashfilm Regret seems to permeate the entire film; a feeling that capturing and canonizing these intimate traditions is a form of barbarism. Truong appears to wrestle with the long-held wisdom of "show, don't tell" Oct 16, 2019 Full Review Kaleem Aftab Cineuropa The images of villagers in the mountain tilling the land and living in seclusion, and those of their pets wandering around, are stunning.
