Movie Reviews

Reviews:
"It's an admirably sober account of the often painful process for abuse victims of coming forward with testimony after living for 30 years or more with their painful secrets." - 02/08/2019 Hollywood Reporter


"[A] compassionate study of victims facing their own suppressed stories." - 02/08/2019 Variety


"Ozon exerts his command of cinematic language throughout, in ways that are less immediately obvious. He crafts a film that is engrossing from the start, while building to something greater and more emotionally encompassing." - 10/17/2019 New York Times


4 stars out of 5 -- "[S]incere, thoughtful and immaculately acted." - 11/21/2019 Empire
