Alissa Simon Variety Combines distinctive cutout animation with family photos and archival footage to forge a look at an authoritarian society through a young girl's eyes. Jan 22, 2021 Full Review Rubén Rosario MiamiArtZine ...a serviceable, respectably somber document... May 3, 2021 Full Review Christopher Llewellyn Reed Film Festival Today In vivid, often harrowing, detail, she walks us through her Soviet childhood and its enduring legacy. Rated: 3.5/4 Mar 13, 2021 Full Review Matthew Anderson CineVue A non-linear construction and distilling of relatively complex ideas into easily manageable chunks do not pander to younger audiences or diminish the seriousness of its message. But neither does the film shy away from the atrocities. Rated: 3/5 Feb 26, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews
