Share sets a groundbreaking new model for a fresh paradigm of post-assault parental behavior.

For teens and their parents [this film] ought perhaps to be compulsory viewing. A word of advice though: maybe watch in separate rooms. Some things are just not meant to be shared.

Share's ascetic dismissal of concrete details renders the film alienating, even off-putting.

In Barreto, a 21-year-old British unknown, Bianco has an actor who's persuasively ordinary as a teenager, but also totally hypnotic.

A masterful example of how cinema can channel what filmmaker Deborah Kampmeier dubbed 'the female experience.'
| Original Score: 4/4 | Jul 26, 2019
In an effectively understated performance with minimal dialogue, Barreto's haunted face conveys it all, showing us the already fragile psyche of a teen slowly break down with the glum realisation of how unjust the world around her can be.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 24, 2019
A sensitive, complex, important film - particularly in a world where the lines of consent and accusations of sexual assault still seem to be up for debate.

With its hazy cinematography and sparse yet mournful score, Share risks becoming a total dirge, but is enlivened in large part by the honesty within its lead performances.

"Share" is fragmented and disorienting, though one suspects that confusion is perhaps Bianco's point. Like Mandy, we're forced to spend the film grasping for facts.
| Original Score: C | Feb 4, 2019
Not only a raw portrait of a sexual assault survivor, it's also an oblique but horrifying treatise on the various ways in which the internet has made us feel entitled to other peoples' most private experiences.
| Original Score: B | Feb 4, 2019
Aided by down-to-earth portrayals and a compelling cinematographic through-line that echoes the both ordinary and complex nature of this kind of violence, the film blurs genre lines between coming-of-age drama and thriller.

Among its many achievements, 'Share' uncomfortably captures the specific end-of-the-world misery of high school scandal, and the way that those highly populated spaces can somehow feel like the loneliest in the world.
