	Media	Author	Review
		Guy Lodge Variety	"Formally stunning and politically seething (...) Schleinzer’s film takes a chillingly but aptly clinical view of a life treated as an amusing human experiment"
		Wendy Ide Screendaily	"Schleinzer, like his central character, uses silence as a tool and a weapon (...) This is accomplished filmmaking"
		Vassilis Economou Cineuropa	"The solemnity of the story is enhanced by the meticulously crafted setting for each of the chapters in Angelo’s life (...) Each scene leaves the viewer with a feeling of eerie emptiness"
