Critic Reviews

  • Bill Chambers, Film Freak Central

    A gripping and mildly devastating viewing experience

  • Liz Braun, Jam! Movies

  • Urban Cinefile Critics, Urban Cinefile

    Engaging by its economical focus and almost tangible reality, Walking on Water is an absorbing essay about the human condition.
