“A gorgeously photographed, compulsively watchable and deeply sympathetic film that avoids dates, maps and biography in favour of myth and mystery.”
— Globe & Mail
“A haunting, thought-provoking and beautifully filmed legend.”
— One Movie Film Reviews
“One compelling film with a beauty that becomes ever more precious as we bear witness to it’s destruction. Hadwin’s act was a supreme statement of self-sacrifice, akin to God watching the crucifixion of Christ.”
— The Windsor Square
“A magisterial environmental indictment as well as being a cinematic work of pure beauty.”
— Sequences, La Revue De Cinema
