United States	Matt Zoller Seitz rogerebert.com	"An illustration of animation's possibilities for artistic expression (...) An epic historical drama of a kind that would be submitted for all sorts of Oscars if it were live-action (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	Peter Debruge Variety	"An admirable film, a major artistic achievement (...) [It uses] animation to create both the emotional intimacy and necessary distance to confront a historic tragedy"	POS
	Fabien Lemercier Cineuropa	"With great narrative strength and skilful visual restraint, this commendable film is a prime example of animation's ability to focus on adult subjects"	POS
