"It shows what you can do when emotional understanding and storytelling craft become the ruling factors in a project, filtered through performers who can truly do the material justice."

"It's an intense, powerful and at times deeply painful movie, a serious exercise in sexual politics, and Mnica del Carmen as Laura gives an outstanding, brave performance."
Guardian
"A haunting portrait of loneliness in its starkest state."
