Brought up in an environment torn apart by violence and alcohol, Lidia Yuknavitch seemed destined for self-destruction and failure until words offered her unexpected freedom in the form of literature. The Chronology of Water, adapted from Yuknavitch's autobiographical bestseller, follows Lidia's journey to find her own voice in an exploration of how trauma can be transformed into art through re-possessing our own bloody histories, particularly those uniquely experienced by the bodies of women and girls.

Kevin Maher Times (UK) A hugely committed Imogen Poots performance just about rescues the directorial indulgences of the first-time feature film-maker and former Twilight star Kristen Stewart. Rated: 3/5 May 16, 2025 Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian This is an earnest and heartfelt piece of work, and Stewart has guided strong, intelligent performances. Rated: 3/5 May 16, 2025 Full Review Chase Hutchinson TheWrap Actors turning to directing is nothing new, but it’s unlikely you’ve seen a performer’s directorial debut as boldly confident and emotionally precise as Kristen Stewart’s “The Chronology of Water.” May 16, 2025 Full Review Stephanie Bunbury Deadline Hollywood Daily The film [Kristen Stewart] has made is simultaneously raw and intricately constructed, as precise and potentially perilous as a Jenga skyscraper. So much visual and aural artifice could easily collapse in on itself, but it holds steady. May 16, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
