	Media	Author	Review
		Guy Lodge Variety	"[It] documents creativity blossoming from misfortune, positing that, alongside medicine at least, it’s inspiration that has kept Nourry alive."
		Keith Uhlich The Hollywood Reporter	"For better and for worse, the film is both personal memoir and promo reel, and the emotions tend to be undercut by the self-marketing."
		Kate Erbland IndieWire	"Few films feel this immediate and vivid, and Nourry's abilities as a creator translate wonderfully to the medium."
		Katie Walsh Los Angeles Times	"When the film dives into her struggles with identity in relationship to cancer through art, it’s fascinating, and very emotional."
		Ben Kenigsberg The New York Times	"[It] can be an extremely intimate documentary (...) It seems best to view 'Serendipity' as one component of a much bigger project (...) a body of work in which life and art are inseparable."
