The Unknown Country Ratings & Reviews
Austin Chronicle
Jenny Nulf
The Unknown Country is a naturalistic exploration of America that's hopeful of human connection in the midst of a country that sometimes feels hostile.
A Good Movie To Watch
Farah Cheded
Moments of documentary, Gladstone's naturalistic performance, Andrew Hajek's contemplative images of lush American landscapes, and the film's aversion to outright drama enrich the fictional elements by grounding them in earthy reality.
Seven Days (VT)
Margot Harrison
The movie has one of the most beautifully executed last scenes I've seen in a while.
Paste Magazine
Ursula Muñoz S.
Morrisa Maltz takes viewers on a journey through the American West that creatively blurs the line between fact and fiction with illuminating results.
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
Maltz skillfully evolves her movie's tone, melancholy becoming fearful uncertainty before embracing a love of life. She is particularly adept at evoking that feeling of restorative embrace family reunions can provide those who've been apart.
Fort Worth Report
Joe Friar
Morrisa Maltz's debut narrative feature is a beautifully shot film of a land united that leaves the viewer longing for the harmony displayed in this cross-section of the American Midwest. Lilly Gladstone is terrific in one the best films of the year
AWFJ.org
Valerie Kalfrin
even in quiet moments, [Lily] Gladstone holds the screen.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
Inside [Tana]'s making a parallel set of discoveries, as does the cinematic reverie we're watching.
Chicago Reader
Dmitry Samarov
Morrisa Maltz's debut narrative feature deftly mixes in documentary-style sketches...
San Francisco Chronicle
Bob Strauss
Maltz's work is about finding small, great things we'd likely overlook - if we knew where to go looking for them at all.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
The Unknown Country may be more a feeling than a movie, but that's more than satisfactory. Attentive and artful, Maltz is a talent to watch, and in Gladstone, she's fortunate enough to have a star whose presence binds us to all this soulful roaming.

"The Unknown Country" shows us what we're missing.
Variety
Guy Lodge
Andrew Hajek's patiently roving lensing isn't averse to the odd enraptured magic-hour vista, but binds the film's various modes and methods in a common, sandy-hued visual language.
The Hollywood Reporter
Sheri Linden
A memorable, heart-expanding journey.
New York Times
Lisa Kennedy
The film's gentle detours into the real-life stories remind us that it is the people met on the road that so often make the trip memorable.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
Experimentally fascinating.
Austin Chronicle
Dina Barrish
Make no mistake: it's worth the watch, if even just for Jazzy and Flo.
Deadline Hollywood Daily
Anna Smith
Despite great performances, The Unknown Country's real life subjects are so eccentric, they sometimes overshadow the actors. But perhaps that's the point: truth is stranger than fiction.
IndieWire
Carlos Aguilar
Puts us in the presence of a major talent, bearing something profound in her artistic inclinations.
AWFJ.org
Alexandra Heller-Nicholas
The Unknown Country is a poetically whispered dreamscape where self and place collide on a seemingly never ending highway.
