The Burdened Ratings & Reviews
Awards Daily
Frank J. Avella
Abortion dramas are not rare, but we hardly ever see depictions of people of a certain age making the decision.
The Film Verdict
Jay Weissberg
Shot by Mrinal Desai ("Court") in a deceptively straightforward style that adds a heightened feeling of authenticity, the film is a rigorously controlled, moving evocation of a family exhausted by the difficulties of keeping it all together.
Critic's Notebook
Sarah Manvel
Its kindness and intuition about human nature and the way in which it uses location to reflect mood are skills filmmakers from many other nations could stand to study.
Moveable Fest
Stephen Saito
Gamal subtly notes dichotomies all over the place, actively dismantling monolithic notions of a society that could be easily seen as being stuck in the past, but making the large abstract forces that continue to hold back progress so clearly visible.
