Crossing

Crossing takes all of us down paths that even the shrewdly observant Lia would be unable to predict, but that she’d be the first to appreciate. ​It's a heartbreaker in all the best ways.

Levan Akin’s second film brings depth and eloquence to a simple premise.

A movie about respect and dignity. I thought it was quite extraordinary.

Its dramatic conclusion still manages to forgo clichéd expectations and cater instead to the limitless possibilities that abound in an urban sprawl.

While it doesn’t break new ground visually, Crossing still registers as a perfectly agreeable watch.

The message of accepting differences and overcoming one's own prejudices has been left with something beautiful like an unexpected Turkish postcard. [Full review in Spanish]

Crossing is crafted with some rough, heartbreaking moments but also with a level of intimacy that makes it engrossing and profound.

While it might not pack the same emotional punch as its predecessor, this is a contemplative film from a now accomplished filmmaker.
