Geoff Pevere Globe and Mail MacKay's movie has a consistent visual tone of almost drowsy drabness, but that's the point: This is the world Sam will learn to see beyond and swim clear of. Rated: 2.5/4 May 15, 2015 Full Review Bruce DeMara Toronto Star Even though the story may seem slight, as coming-of-age tales go, it packs a surprising amount of emotional power and wisdom. Rated: 3/4 May 14, 2015 Full Review Jorge Ignacio Castillo The Canadian Crew I can't emphasize this enough, Julia Sarah Stone is a find. Far cry from a Nickelodeon starlet-in-waiting, Stone has the screen presence and acting chops to carry a movie. Rated: 3/5 Jan 30, 2020 Full Review Norman Wilner NOW Toronto The coming-of-age tale is familiar territory, but MacKay gives this one a sensual texture that feels like you're immersed in a really thoughtful short story, with a measured pace that gives us time to understand Sam's thoughts and feelings. Rated: 4/5 Dec 18, 2015 Full Review Julia Cooper National Post Lanky, wide-eyed, and impossibly fragile, [Julia Sarah Stone] doesn't much look like a hero, which is exactly why we need her. Rated: 3/4 May 14, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews
