Observer (UK)

The whole family are terrific company and Magali captures both the beauty and the bleakness of the environment in which they live and work.

Rated: 4/5 •

If you love staring at sheep for long periods of time, this may be your Citizen Kane.

Times (UK)

Addicted to Sheep is the rather racy title of a charming documentary about a year in the life of a family on a hill farm in the north Pennines.

Rated: 3/5 •

Alison Rowat

The Herald (Scotland)

There was a danger here that [director Magali] Pettier could have made a glossy film for townies in search of escapism, but she does not shy away from showing the downsides of the farming life.

Rated: 4/5 •

Film Inquiry

Despite its roughness and lack of 'drama', Addicted to Sheep truly embodies the nature of the ob-doc.

Wonderful film: fascinating and absorbing. A documentary about tenant farmers raising Swaledale sheep in the north Pennines doesn't sound very exciting, but it manages to be completely gripping all the way through, beautifully observed, clear-sighted, and often funny. One of the best and most enjoyable documentary films I've ever seen.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
