Between sleeping, waking and dreaming, we experience a collective dream of children who seem to be alone in this world -- alone with universal questions and fears for which they must find their own answers.

Pramit Chatterjee Film Fugitives Despite not being violent or overly dramatic, [The Night is Dark and Colder than the Day] is certainly not for the faint of heart because it’ll compel you to reflect on if the kids of this world are doing alright. Rated: 3/5 Feb 11, 2025 Full Review Ethan Padgett Film Threat A fascinating look into the creative minds of children. For audiences, this is a chance to get in tune with their inner child for an uncanny experience. Rated: 8/10 Feb 6, 2025 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Navigating fears, dreams and dark imaginings, it has a folkloric depth to it even as it seems acutely relevant to the present, to our changing world. Rated: 4/5 Feb 6, 2025 Full Review Tony Asankomah GhMovieFreak Its abstract style and lack of a traditional narrative structure could be challenging for some. But it’s undeniably a film made with intention, and perhaps its biggest challenge lies in ensuring that every viewer can connect with it on some level. Rated: 3.5/5 Feb 3, 2025 Full Review Kenneth R. Morefield 1More Film Blog The obvious point of comparison here is Michael Apted’s Seven Up series, and I spent a good portion of the film wondering why I have revisited Apted’s kids several times but lost interest pretty quickly in Friedrich’s. Rated: 2/4 Feb 2, 2025 Full Review Alejandro Turdó Hoy Sale Cine Friedrich chooses to take the less traveled road when it comes to explore the mind of young children to get a glimpse of how they feel about the world they have to live in as well as the world they will inherit in the not so distant future.
