...this is profound, satisfying filmmaking.

A promising debut...

It’s a very stylish piece of work from Hall.

Negga is magnetic as antiheroine Clare; a slinky, charismatic presence with dubious motives and a tinkling laugh, she ingratiates herself into Irene’s life, turning it upside down.

...et lille, lavmælt drama, nærmest et kammerspil.

...en æstetisk mættet og stilfuld film med sine sorthvide toner, som både synes rolige og urovækkende.

Det är sofistikerat och oerhört tjusigt...

...regissörens och ensemblens järnkoll på gester, blickar och små, gradvisa överträdelser får berättelsen att ticka på som ett exakt urverk mot sitt obevekliga slut.

...a rousing tragicomedy that straddles a line between incredibly calibrated gallows humor and a devastating discourse on the burden of existence.

...a stunning story of race and pretense.

Sensitivity and generosity touch every element of the production, from the cinematography to the editing, allowing viewers to sit in the prolonged emotion of the characters.

...elegant, searing period piece.

A delicate exploration of grey areas.

Rebecca Hall’s exhilarating directorial debut tackles a racial taboo in style.

Jerrod Carmichael delivers a raw, darkly hilarious first film...
