David Sterritt

Yedaya's prizewinning debut film is acted and directed with uncommon psychological realism. Read full review

V.A. Musetto

Like mother, like daughter best sums up Or (My Treasure), a raw drama. Read full review

Sean Axmaker

Yedaya is respectful and sensitive of everyone in Or's life and creates a beautiful, complex and rich relationship between mother and daughter, loving and protective of each other, but not of themselves. Read full review

Kevin Thomas

A work of exceptional subtlety and is all the more captivating and heart-rending for being so. Read full review

Ella Taylor

Doggedly refusing artifice as if cinematic beauty were a filthy capitalist plot, Yedaya drowns her characters in realist grit, a colorless screenplay and no score to speak of, rendering this open book of a movie alienating in all the wrong ways. Read full review
