Before Tomorrow Ratings & Reviews
Monsters and Critics
Ron Wilkinson
One of the most intriguing films of the year. A film that says a lot by saying little.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Frustratingly sketchy partly because it is not finally a survival tale but a mystical evocation of the power of Inuit mythology, and how the passing down of ancient wisdom can sustain the human spirit in the direst circumstances.
AV Club
Noel Murray
It's set in a forbidding landscape at a dangerous time, and Cousineau and Ivalu show how companionship and shared tradition can go a long way toward sustaining people even in the face of personal devastation.
Filmcritic.com
Chris Cabin
neither Ivalu nor Cousineau have the light, deft touch it takes to merge cultural fiction and social realism in a seamless manner
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
A poignant, heartfelt, enlightening and lyrical journey filled with beautiful, haunting images.
Spirituality & Practice
Mary Ann Brussat
A powerful Inuit film about the wisdom and skills of elders, the devastation wrought by contact with Westerners, the importance of community, and the magical connection between grandparents and grandchildren.
Film Journal International
Maria Garcia
The third in a cinematic trilogy of pre-Christian Inuit life that began with Atanarjuat, The Fast Runner, Before Tomorrow is an outstanding film which presents a distinctly feminine view of the history of the Inuit.
Village Voice
Andrew Schenker
The directors nevertheless manage to locate great reserves of sadness in the material, tapping a particularly rich vein in the wrinkled look of resignation on actress/co-director Ivalu's face.
Film-Forward.com
Nora Lee Mandel
Episodic portrayal of Arctic women's role in physical and cultural survival, from feisty friends to storytelling as a nurturing rite of passage, but depressingly realistic.
Slant Magazine
Matthew Connolly
Like all great stories, it paradoxically allows us access to the big picture by bringing us gradually, hauntingly close.
Compuserve
Harvey S. Karten
With its glacial pace and lack of action,this sample of Arctic artiness may be appreciated principally by anthropologists and social studies teachers and those who can enjoy seeing remote cultures through their own, aboriginal eyes.
