Leave your thoughts about In Heaven Underground: The Weissensee Jewish Cemetery.
| Film Journal InternationalEric MonderA majestic garden is the real star of this somber yet inspiring documentary. |
| New York PostV.A. MusettoAn oddity: an upbeat film about a cemetery. |
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranIt may not sound like it, but In Heaven, Underground: The Weissensee Jewish Cemetery is a playful, poetic and all-around charming documentary, an off-center look at an unusual institution. |
| The A.V. ClubAlison WillmoreMost people wouldn't expect a film that's inherently about death (and, to a lesser extent, the Holocaust) to be uplifting, but the gentle, tender documentary In Heaven, Underground ultimately achieves it. |
| The New York TimesDavid DeWittThe sense of place may be expected, but it's also poetic and exquisite. |
| Paste MagazineAnnlee EllingsonIt's far too much ground for one 90-minute documentary to cover ... In Heaven, Underground, though, is gorgeously photographed. |
| The New RepublicStanley KauffmannInterviews with the cemetery director and with adults who grew up in buildings on the outskirts convey something we might not have imagined, or bothered to imagine-affection for a cemetery. |
| Time OutDavid FearAs a micro-to-macro tour of Germany's fraught relationship with its Jewish citizens, In Heaven Underground couldn't be more connective; as a straight doc, its aesthetic choices couldn't be more confusing. |
| Slant MagazineRob HumanickIt's regretful when the film essentially turns into little more than a good-mannered advertisement for a cemetery. |
| New York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanThere are fascinating stories to be told, and we do get a few. But much of the movie feels padded, as if Wauer didn't uncover quite enough substance to fill out her chronicle. |
