Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
A tendency toward broad novelistic storytelling... robs Sweet Mud of a focus.

fresh:
This is a film from the heart, from a firsthand familiarity that yields conflicted emotions over the gap between an ideal and its realization.

rotten:
If [director] Shaul means for his indictment to have some contemporary resonance, to hint at conformist pressures in the current Israeli state, he fails to give us any of the blocks needed to build that thesis.

An appealing coming-of-age tale that takes on the difficult issues of mental illness and conformity.
