A film that channels its complexity to create something understated Luis Martinez, EL MUNDO

 

Beautiful, smart, eccentric, tender, a tribute to those who are helpless and forced to learn to let goCarlos Boyero, EL PAÍS

 

The feel-good movie laid bare. Takes care of itself and of the viewer. Just when it seems like things are about to go wrong, it ends up on top…Victor Esquirol, DIARIO VASCO

 

Daniel Sánchez-Arévalo has premiered a warm, simple and moving road movieAlfonso Rivera, CINEUROPA

Waddington decides not to reveal everything that may be going on in the tortured minds of the characters and lets the viewer mull it over themselves. This bold decision makes Patrick a provocative, powerful and disconcerting filmDavid González, CINEUROPA

Visually powerful and heavyBegoña del Teso, DIARIO VASCO

“‘Sister’ is a resounding second step in Svetla Tsotsorkova’s career. It’s an intense experience and one worth havingCristóbal Soage, CINEUROPA

Superb performances by Nichola Burley and newcomer Roxanne Scrimshaw anchor Fyzal Boulifa's unforgiving study of working-class tragedy and communityGuy Lodge, VARIETY

Absolutely beautiful in the visual and phantasmagorical sense (…) a powerful hybrid of political cinema and ghost movieBegoña del Teso, EL DIARIO VASCO

The brilliant performances from the leading couple and the careful visual recreation underpin an elegantly crafted movie (…) hits the mark with its existential analysis and the depiction of a horror that doesn’t leave room for indifferenceKoldo Landaluze, DIARIO VASCO

“(Ciro Guerra) continues to use space and silence, with his knack for honing in on beauty in huge landscapesMikel G. Gurpegui, DIARIO VASCO

 

Evocative and powerful, and Ciro once again exploits a series of sequences with a huge visual impact, dominated by an almost dreamlike abstraction Koldo Landaluze, GARA

 

A noteworthy film based on the eponymous novel ‘Waiting for the Barbarians’ (…) both the script and film are magnificentHarkaitz Cano, DIARIO VASCO
