Leslie Felperin

Hollywood Reporter

A finely observed study of modern manners and mores on a micro-budget that’s nevertheless rich in feeling, especially the cringeiness one might experience from watching other people bicker or hearing people have sex through thin walls.

College Movie Review

Naked emotions and naked bodies alone do not a compelling film make.

Rated: C

Louisa Moore

Screen Zealots

The film has its share of cringe-inducing moments, plenty of Gen Z cynicism, and leans heavily on its low budget mumblecore roots. It works fine as a festival film, but I don’t see much appeal beyond those parameters.

To pigeonhole this languid pessimism as yet another instance of American indie mumblecore wouldn’t be inaccurate, but it also glosses over the hermetic framing carefully employed here.

Shelagh Rowan-Legg

ScreenAnarchy

This Closeness is part of a new wave of American indie cinema, one that shows how interwoven our emotional wellbeing is with vulnerability to the forces of material survival. Zauhar is quickly honing her talent.

Rated: 4/5

Stephen Saito

Moveable Fest

It’s the simple things that present problems in Zauhar’s razor-sharp second feature, which overcomes them itself as a single-location relationship comedy that plays the angles as well in its plotting as its visuals.
