Critic Reviews

Matt Zoller Seitz

Has all the hallmarks of a career summation -- and early on it seems fated to collapse beneath the weight of its ambitions. Instead, it soars, thanks to Mr. Gerima’s bracingly direct storytelling. Read full review

Ray Bennett

Andrew Schenker

Alissa Simon

Ultimately rewards the viewer's patience with a potent sense of Ethiopian history and culture. Read full review
