REVIEWS
"On just his second film, the gifted young Sweeney demonstrates a sophisticated sense of framing, pace and exquisitely uncomfortable dramatic tension, compounded by Jung-Jae Il's anxious Philip Glass-like score." Peter Debruge, Variety

"It's extremely clever and full of surprises, and reinforces that writer, director, and co-star James Sweeney is a bold and refreshing filmmaker to watch." Christy Lemire, RogerEbert.com
