	Media	Author	Review
		Sheri Linden The Hollywood Reporter	"Kronerova inhabits the role of Hana with an invigorating directness. And she has a terrific onscreen partner in Pavel Novy (...) The writer-director’s affection for his older characters couldn’t be clearer."
		Alissa Simon Variety	"Kronerová and Nový repay the helmer-writer with warm, dignified turns that require both soul- and flesh-baring."
		Wendy Ide Screendaily	"'Ice Mother' handles the lives of its older protagonists with sensitivity and admirable candour."
