Leave your thoughts about Kiss the Water.
| Observer (UK)Mark KermodeWith its lyrical blend of atmospheric Highland footage and expressionist animation, this is much more than a documentary about the dying art of hand-fashioned fishing hooks. |
| Financial TimesNigel AndrewsIt makes fishing look an Edenic pastime, with Boyd's iridescent feather/fur/hair creations proving that in a prelapsarian world even salmon can have the fine or fatal sensibility of art connoisseurs. |
| Time OutTrevor JohnstonDefinitely not your standard doc, this is something special ... a captivating journey through a landscape of mystery and imagination. |
| Total FilmKevin HarleyDeploys talking heads, dreamy animations and lyrical music to trace the arc of Boyd's life and mount a poetic, poignant tribute to the seductive mystique of a rarefied craft. |
| Daily Telegraph (UK)Robbie CollinThis is the story of an odd life, and a degree of oddness in its telling is desirable. |
| ScotsmanSiobhan SynnotIt's a pity there's so little footage of Boyd, but Em Cooper's animation bridges some of the gaps in this gentle, artful pleasure. |
| Eye for FilmAmber WilkinsonThis is an impressionistic portrait, as multi-faceted and delicate as the flies which we see being created at points through the film. |
| GuardianPeter BradshawWhat seems at first an impossibly flimsy and meagre documentary subject slowly reveals itself as cine-miniaturism with charm. |
| London Evening StandardCharlotte O'SullivanSteel uses animation, crispy cinematography and interviews with Boyd's protégés and friends to chart the depths of this one-of-a-kind businesswoman. |
| OregonianJamie S. RichImpressionistic animation illustrates the beauty Boyd created...Megan herself comes off as some kind of fabled creature, never seen, but always admired and respected. |
