	Media	Author	Review
		Andrew Barker Variety	"Director Greg Kwedar makes an impressive feature debut with this atmospheric thriller set on the U.S.-Mexico border."
		John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter	"A tense what-would-you-do thriller."
		Jeannette Catsoulis The New York Times	"Accomplishing a lot with very little (...) 'Transpecos' is fortified by strong acting and a location whose desolate beauty is a gift to Jeffrey Waldron’s serene camera."
		Chris Nashawaty Entertainment Weekly	"Kwedar’s sense of place feels so authentic that you can taste the dust in the back of your throat when the end credits roll. It’s just a shame that such a promising thriller winds up not knowing where to go, or how to get there."
		Michael Rechtshaffen Los Angeles Times	"An effectively moody, well-acted and impressively understated thriller"
