A portrait of three working N.Y. mothers whose lives intersect at a 24-hour daycare center: a mother working the overnight shift at a hospital, another holding down three jobs, and a woman who cares for the children of parents with nowhere to turn.

Noel Murray

Los Angeles Times

This quietly engaging documentary is also subtly political, showing with clear eyes how good people are trying to patch gaps in our society that shouldn't be there in the the first place.

After watching the movie, you will feel a greater sense of admiration for Nunu, and the others like her who affect so many lives with their good work.

Rated: 3/4

Without making it too obvious, Limbal's documentary shines a light on the unspoken backbone of our economy.

The Curvy Film Critic

Limbal cinematically reimagines how we view and treat people who mother. The film delicately crafts with humanity and heart that only a child of a female caretaker would know how to share.

Film Threat

Through The Night shines a light on the unsustainable work that people must do to survive in an untenable society...working non-stop, never seeing their children, just to tread water.

Rated: 7/10
