Set in the seemingly peaceful Okanagan, a distraught cannery worker discovers an invasive insect that could threaten the livelihood of her entire town.

Globe and Mail

As deeply moving as it is upsetting, Until Branches Bend is an affecting drama that begs audiences to question their own social complacency.

Dex Wesley Parra

Austin Chronicle

The acting duo elevates a story that, while clearly dear to the crew’s hearts, displayed with a visual brilliance, gives short shrift to clarity in favor of a rich atmosphere.

A film that’s at its best when it's playing more with mood than traditional narrative.

What She Said

The sisters live without any plan, having had no guidance or support which was interesting, but tough, perhaps too much troubling material has been crammed into an important story.

Rated: 2/44

Original Cin

Sophie Jarvis’ feature directorial debut is beguiling, at once allegorical, experimental, and sometimes predictable but open-ended and never dull.

Rated: B

Alison Gillmor

Winnipeg Free Press

Writer-director Sophie Jarvis makes a promising feature-film debut with a thoughtful, underplayed drama that quietly thrums with apocalyptic undertones.
