Reviews

Every narrative twist... hammers home the same point: that it's hard to be a good man in a bad system. Given the system Rasoulof works within (and against), however, it's a message well worth repeating.

Devika Girish, New York Times

Rasoulof creates a form - nearly an anti-style - of stark confrontation that gives an aesthetic identity to his righteous and dangerous candor.
