3/5
"Denis declines to make concessions, she's willing to show, refuses to tell."  Eye for Film  Amber Wilkinson

3.5/4
"Perhaps as a result of channeling Ozu, Denis's incipient humanism comes through more directly than in her existentially forbidding The Intruder or even her acclaimed, baroque Herman Melville remix Beau Travail."  Slant Magazine  Bill Weber

4/5
"This deep devotion to physicality and wordless expression has been part of Denis' repertoire for some time but it has never been so soulful and seductive."  Filmcritic.com  Chris Cabin

B+
"...about the bonds that keep us tied to people, places and things...Denis has a mesmerizing directorial style"  Reeling Reviews  Laura Clifford

A-
"Depicts everyday details and conveys overarching emotional upheavals with a compassion and gentleness that's quietly devastating."  Lessons of Darkness  Nick Schager

4/5
"Denis uses her typically moody, vague style to explore multicultural France with dark humour and warm emotion."  Shadows on the Wall  Rich Cline
