“Cronin is able to shade every shot and every detail with poetic overtones, so that the film’s events add up to much more than simple portraiture. It’s a glance into the core mystery of being human, the contrast between our mortal, bodily existence and the evident infinity of creation. This level of visual poetry requires extremely fine artistic control and sensitivity, and Cronin possesses both in abundance.” - David Finkelstein, Lake Ivan Film Journal.
