Nesbit 2.5/4 "A resolutely old fashioned story of personal tribulations played out against a backdrop of political turmoil, Sivan's film is well acted, beautifully photographed and oddly reassuring."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh "[A] fierce, uncompromising critique of... nonchalant imperialism, and maybe even of just men on the whole...
