intensity conjures up memories of Bergman. –Robin Wood, Cine-Action

Astounding... touches the viewer's soul to the fundamental core... a film that will

stay with me for a long, long time. - Edmonton Vue Weekly

Stunningly imbibed with life. –Ottawa X-Press

The emotion the movie expends is fully real, earned by a taut script and a fine sense of pace and direction. – National Post

performances. - Macleans

A riveting drama...power that is undeniable. – Ottawa Citizen

A gem. – Gerald Pratley, A Century of Canadian Cinema
