Reviews

The Film Stage -
As powerfully felt and gorgeously realized as anything one may see on screen this year.
|
|
Village Voice -
Quintana's emphasis on Jungian dream logic gives his otherwise spartan parable a compelling mythic dimension. The Vessel may bring Malick to mind, but it also feels like a major work by an exciting new talent.

Austin Chronicle -
The Vessel speaks eloquently. It’s a testament to the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen.
|
|
Variety -
Cuban-American writer-director Julio Quintana’s feature debut has an understated formal loveliness that helps offset its more heavy-handed allegorical inclinations.

|
Los Angeles Times -
It’s a strange brew: stark yet beautiful, urgent yet dreamlike.
