“Ashley Zukerman and Talia Zucker are excellent in this sci-fi thriller, with incredible sound design and an interestingly peculiar final act.” ~Luke Buckmaster, The Guardian
“More than a genre piece, it’s a resonant psychological drama that lingers long after the screen goes dark, offering a chilling glimpse into a disturbingly plausible future.” ~Vimala Mangat
“A low budget project which punches above its weight.” ~Jennie Kermode, Eye For Film
