Drew Gregory Autostraddle The characters are often kept in the lower half of the frame as if Guellaty and DP Frida Marzouk are leaving space for their dreams. Jan 31, 2025 Full Review Ty Burr Ty Burr's Watch List (Substack) It's a standard road film in structure, but writer-director Amel Guellaty keeps the energy fizzing throughout, and Bellagha is a whirlwind in the lead – hilarious, heartsore, always making the wrong decision for the right reasons. Rated: 3/4 Jan 29, 2025 Full Review Marya E. Gates RogerEbert.com the film hits the kind of road trip tropes—lack of money, car trouble, side trips, fights—that you expect from the genre. Yet, like the best of these films, Guellaty’s script finds the internal wisdom that the road can help unlock in ourselves. Jan 28, 2025 Full Review Jeff Nelson Guy at the Movies Where the Wind Comes From doesn’t tread new ground, although it does satisfy as a cathartic indie dramedy with sparks of charm. Rated: 3/5 Jan 28, 2025 Full Review Santanu Das Hindustan Times Amel Guellaty provides a refreshing addition to the coming-of-age story, aided with wonderful performances from Eya Bellagha and Slim Baccar. Jan 28, 2025 Full Review Abe Friedtanzer Awards Buzz Bellagha and Baccar anchor a human story that provides both entertainment and the chance to think about what these people really want and how much they already have. Rated: 8/10 Jan 27, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
