Variety
Material that might have turned to standard dysfunctional family treacle in other hands is given stirring poignancy, warmth and emotional insight in Shona Auerbach's assured first feature. Full Review

The end result is an unremarkable, unmemorable movie that deserves neither praise nor approbation. Full Review
