“Unusually compelling [with] an air of streetwise neorealism… edgy, documentary-style immediacy. Rivera is a standout in a drama enhanced by apt use of hand-held camerawork and naturalistic lighting.”
–Variety
“Innovative… a gripping immersion course on urban youth.” –O, The Oprah Magazine
“The honesty of [the characters’] voices and touching poetry of their language draw you in with their authenticity, heart, and youthful determination.”
–Austin Chronicle
“Innovative in how the story is told… [with] honest and unforced performances, the film has a level of intimacy and realism… artful… charmingly unaffected and funny.” –Cinematical.com
“Novel… refreshingly raw and highly intimate [as] the winding score guides the story toward a restrained and quietly tragic conclusion.”
–The Isthmus, Wisconsin
