Sylvi Audience Reviews

Sammy-Jo Cervantes There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Benas Mcloughlin Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Beulah Bram A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
