Reviews

Pop Aye, the feature debut of writer-director Kirsten Tan, is a conventionally structured road tale with sparkling character interactions and a delightful variation on the concept of man's best friend.

Anita Katz, San Francisco Examiner

The sharply observed screenplay adeptly balances gentle humor and poignancy in a contemplative examination of loneliness, aging, mortality and regret.
