Reviews
A compelling 78-minute snapshot of Southern poverty and grief, 19-year-old director Phillip Youmans' debut "Burning Cane" hovers in textures more than plot.Eric Kohn, indieWire
Burning Cane is a movie that flows over you: It's less a structured narrative than a series of arcane images, each more beguiling and haunting than the last.Hoai-Tran Bui, Slashfilm
