It's the Earth Not the Moon Ratings & Reviews
Village Voice
Nick Pinkerton
Through fourteen headed chapters, Tocha catalogues every strata of island life, often in captivating images-the reflection of the village in a rheumy eye, moonglow on the harbor.
New York Times
Daniel M. Gold
Though often random in its organization - Mr. Tocha slides from contemplative seascapes and misty meadows to a slaughterhouse and the Corvo landfill - this portrait is still much more than a snapshot.
Slant Magazine
Joseph Jon Lanthier
After 30 minutes or so, Gonalo Tocha's anthropological proposition slides into dubiousness.
Eye for Film
Amber Wilkinson
What emerges is a picture of a place where much history has been lost, often deliberately, but where the residents, though mindful of their past are always looking to the future.
