CRITICAL
"A minor miracle. Made on a shoestring budget in his native Baltimore, the first film by Matthew Porterfield, which lasts barely an hour, features non-professional actors on film 16mm. And this is one of American independent film's most original, touching and made in recent years. "
- Richard Brody, The New Yorker

" Matt Porterfield's style is subtle, subliminal ... its close wordless images capture the atmosphere and emotion with astonishing reality. "
- Jeannette Catsoulis, The New York Times

" A film arthouse slender, minimalist, came from Baltimore to New York. Staggering in its simple beauty, the amazing acting and hypnotic rhythm. "
- John Waters (filmmaker) Artforum
