Reviews

Abstract, yet moving... The film articulates a concept of universal humanity. No matter the religion or circumstances, we all have the same desires for peace and connection throughout life.

Katie Walsh, Los Angeles Times

It is purely observational, kinetic cinema and, some might say, even a kind of prayer.

John Anderson, America Magazine
