All We Imagine as Light - Kritiken

All We Imagine as Light’s beautiful loneliness will speak to your soul.

...a beautiful tale of three nurses that blurs the line between fiction and documentary.

...Kapadia has created an exceptional document of a city and its people. And it’s one that’s generous to its characters without condescending, as well as honest without oversimplifying.

If Kapadia’s own experience—as well as those she crafts for the screen—represents anything, it’s that no amount of suppression can quash the desire to live and create for oneself.

India’s first Cannes competition title in 30 years is a sensual triumph.

...both admirably restrained and deliberately poetic, painting its constrained women with nuance and empathy, before they light up a narrow path out of liminality.

Led by two nuanced and engaging performances, it’s an impressive achievement from a perceptive independent storyteller.

...a gorgeous romance concerning the lives of two contrasting nurses in present-day Mumbai.

Small in its movements and thoughtful in its observations, All We Imagine As Light is quietly resonant – so quiet you might wonder if it has much impact.

The darkness of “All We Imagine as Light” isn’t darkness at all. The darkness is filled with light.

...we are watching the blooming of a fantastic new voice in cinema and a seismic breakthrough for the future of filmmaking in India.

...dreamlike and gentle modern Mumbai tale is a triumph.

...gripande berättelse om ensamhet och behovet av mänsklig kontakt.

Slutet är så härligt att alla oförstående släktingar och konservativa fördomar bara bleknar bort där vid det ändlösa havet.
