United Kingdom	Cath Clarke The Guardian	"It’s a thoughtful, dream-like film, but, in the end, I’m not sure what 'Distant Constellation' is saying about age or memory (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter	"A quiet gem (...) The subjects making up this constellation are diverse enough to support any number of theories about this graceful film's ultimate meaning."	POS
United Kingdom	Kevin Maher The Times	"[Mizrahi] has created intriguing, poignant and surprisingly gripping content from a potentially exploitative premise (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Daniel Schindel The Film Stage	"The focus on the characters transports the viewer (...) The film’s unhurried nature conveys the feeling of having nowhere to go and no great urgency to get there."	POS
