Reception[edit]
Lorry Kikta of Film Threat gave the film a score of 8/10 and wrote that the film "flies by in an hour and a half but somehow manages to encapsulate so much emotional truth and heartbreaking beauty over its short runtime."[1]
Nick Allen of RogerEbert.com rated the film 2.5 stars out of 4, writing that the film "struggles with a vital balance of Nona’s intimate perspective, and Polish’s desire to create atmosphere with an outsider's eye."[2]
Dennis Harvey of Variety wrote that the film "greatly improves if you view it not as a problematic, lopsided attempt to convey the personal danger and political urgency of current migration trends, but as a small, impressionistic two-character piece that veers earnestly if misguidedly into larger issues in its closing lap."[3]
