“This slow-burning drama, which won one of the top prizes at Sundance earlier this year, elegantly balances a spark of hope against a slowly rising tide of dread.” ~Wendy Ide, The Observer
“Sujo is a direct, unvarnished window into the near inescapable pressure of cyclical violence.” ~Robert Daniels, RogerEbert.com
