Critic Reviews

  • Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail

    The viewer's attention is torn between the breezy philosophical chat and a sense of awe at the filmmakers' travel budget.

  • S. James Wegg, JWR

    ... here's a film that can't help to provoke further discussion, with family, friends (and, hopefully, like-minded strangers) but might also lead to some solitary self-searching, or is that what we are afraid of most?

  • Norman Wilner, NOW Toronto

    [Turns] a talking-heads documentary into a more accessible entertainment.
