	Author	Review
United States	Deborah Young The Hollywood Reporter	"Surprising, disconcerting and droll, this Italo-Swiss co-prod packs the grotesquerie of an Ulrich Seidl film minus the sex, plus vivid acting"	POS
United States	Peter Debruge Variety	"A grotesque view of human nature (...) Such vignettes are upsetting to watch, though the D’Innocenzo Brothers render them with a freshness that we feel compelled to watch"	POS
United Kingdom	Jonathan Romney Screendaily	"One of those films that aren’t afraid to confront you with the grimmest aspects of the human condition, but yet leave you feeling strangely exalted by the sheer cinematic invention involved"	POS
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"It is a superbly shot, viscerally acted ensemble drama (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
	Marta Bałaga Cineuropa	"Although repulsive, and scored to a cacophony of crickets that’s so maddening it’s not a surprise everyone is about to go loco, it’s a universe you believe in."	POS
