	Author	Review
United States	Guy Lodge Variety	"[It] hits with direct emotional force (...) Popescu has a knack for staggering multiple lines of tension and conversation in a scene"	POS
United States	Jessica Kiang The Playlist	"Brutally effective, profoundly depressing (...) Like a magician uses misdirection, Popescu uses repetition and banality to lull us away from the scene’s crux"	POS
United Kingdom	Screendaily	"The direction on this, his third feature, is assured (...) The acting is first-rate (...) This is a quality production"	POS
