Under the Fig Trees Ratings & Reviews
Loud and Clear Reviews
William Stottor
Love and human connections blossom within nature's watch in Under the Fig Trees, Erige Sehiri's tender and immaculately composed orchard chamber piece.
The Take-Up
Andrew Wyatt
A quietly exquisite day-in-the-life ensemble drama about fig-pickers in rural Tunisia, kissed with a touch of Shakespearean pastoral.
Cool People Have Feelings, Too. (Substack)
Marya E. Gates
A patient film, and one with some of the most gorgeous cinematography I've seen in a very long time.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Roxana Hadadi
Under the Fig Trees is a big-minded film that grounds its ideas about labor, sexism, faith, and modernity in the zippy rhythms of its characters' negotiations around friendship, romance, and work.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Peter Rainer
A marvelous little movie.
Film Threat
Josiah Teal
It's not the most rewatchable film, but Under the Fig Trees will capture your curiosity and more than satisfy a need for an excellent character-focused drama.
48 Hills
Dennis Harvey
Sehiri handles it all gracefully enough to manage a sudden sense of exhilarating if fragile largess at the fadeout.
RogerEbert.com
Carlos Aguilar
The consistency of the performances by the cast of first timers, all operating with unshowy nuance even in dialogue-heavy roles, is utterly astounding.
Variety
Manuel Betancourt
Sehiri's observational gaze (crafted alongside DP Frida Marzouk, who makes the most out of the orchard's warm natural light) may be borrowed from her background in documentary filmmaking. But it is here deftly deployed.
Backseat Mafia
Rob Aldam
The highs and lows of one day play-out, but in the end the bond of sisterhood endures.
The Hollywood Reporter
Lovia Gyarkye
An understated and intimate story of sisterhood.
In Review Online
Zachary Goldkind
The eyes that watch the work don't lie, and in taking in Under the Fig Trees' near monochromatic totality, it's hard to find much to confront here other than a deluge of triviality.
ButteredPopcorn
Carson Timar
Under the Fig Trees is a clearly worthwhile watch and finds its own unique poignant voice through the scope of a casual existence.
Moveable Fest
Stephen Saito
"Under the Fig Trees" has the clarity to see the strengths and weaknesses across the uneven land, with wisdom emerging as the juiciest fruit of all this labor.
