Globe and Mail - 8/10 by Aparita Bhandari[A] well-made documentary that manages to charm you, while also following that dictum to #SpeakYourTruth.
NOW Toronto - 8/10 by Norman WilnerWhile some questions remain unanswered by the end, it's still a fascinating look at navigating various cultures. And the final moments are exquisite.
Pittsburgh City Paper - 8/10 by Hannah LynnThis film is a compassionate look on how a divide between parent and child is created, and whether or not it can be repaired.
National Post - 7/10 by Chris KnightThe movie is a touching portrait of a life.
Audiences Everywhere - 7/10 by Nathanael Hood...it left me with little more emotional or artistic fulfillment than one of those banal objective documentaries that are the bane of film critics.
User Review - 10/10 by Miguel JA tale of intersectionality, being a minority within a minority, between a rock and a hard place, reconciling all these parts of your identity and ultimately being yourself. A masterpiece of filmmaking.
