Reviews

IndieWire - Kate Erbland
Olin, at turns daringly open and frustratingly restrained, makes Maya entirely her own, the focal point and reason for the film itself.

RogerEbert.com - Sheila O'Malley
Where Maya Dardel really works is when it sticks to being a character study.
75
Paste Magazine - Amy Glynn
The main issue is that the story, while reasonably interesting, is not as interesting as the setup would like you to imagine, and that in such a context, Lena Olin is way too powerful for it. She not only overwhelms her young executor-suitors but the entire movie.
50
The New York Times - Teo Bugbee
For all the linguistic gymnastics, the film is hamstrung by its directors’ lack of visual imagination.
50
Screen International - Tim Grierson
The proceedings are often stifling, but not without their prickly pleasures.
