★★★★★
‘This film beams and buzzes inside its closed loop with the hard-won wisdom of acceptance. And it does so while staying in awe of what can never be understood, only appreciated – and if we’re lucky, enjoyed.’ — Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times
★★★★★
‘The director has crafted a film of deceptive simplicity, observing the tiny details of a routine existence with such clarity, soulfulness and empathy that they build a cumulative emotional power almost without you noticing.’ — David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter
