“Powerful!”
“… a touching, sometimes disturbing film”
“It’s both wondrous and frightening, and the film captures both that wonder and fear, along with the potent rise and fall and exploration of sexuality and knowledge.”
“You truly cannot take your eyes off the screen… Lola Wayne Villa’s nearly solo performance is shattering… bold and intriguing.”
