Critic Reviews

  • Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star

    If you pay attention to this movie the way this movie pays attention to the details of human experience, you start to see things like Garnet does: Even in the smallest things, there's drama.

  • Walter Chaw, Film Freak Central

    Behrman has a lot of demons and a little bit of skill--enough to make you wonder about his next movie, though not enough to save this one.

  • Ryan Cracknell, Movie Views

    A hauntingly quiet film that honestly explores the emotions of guilt, blame and hope.

  • Liz Braun, Jam! Movies

    This is the sort of film that assumes thinking adults sometimes go to the movies.
