Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Just the quiet drama of two brothers, briefly reunited in their old Nantes neighborhood. Just the small essential struggle of one man, trying to make sense of a life before it's gone.
– Stephen Whitty,
Newark Star-Ledger,

fresh:
Both [Todeschini] and Caravaca do a great deal with very little histrionics to make auds care for two brothers who are clearly re-learning to appreciate their family ties, but who only rarely confront each other about their respective emotional journeys.

fresh:
It's as honest as it is agonizing.
– Gary Dowell,

fresh:
An observant little film that plays like a poignant etude.

fresh:
The movie brings disease back to metaphoric ground zero and, in the process, links the sick and the healthy in one significant but often overlooked manner: We're all prisoners of our own bodies.
