Critic Reviews

Anton Bitel, Little White Lies
Ibanez uses the island's liminal fringes and barren interiors to trace his heroine's state of mental withdrawal.
-
Anton Bitel, Film4
Hierro is unquestionably a film of consummate craft and eerie beauty. Give Ibanez a less shopworn screenplay, and one suspects that his next feature will do more than just skilfully coast.

Amber Wilkinson, Eye for Film
Ironically, despite the narrative positively drowning in water imagery, there is never any sense of flowing story.
