Critic Reviews

That sense of community solidarity and immigrant resilience weaves through the fabric of Sehiri’s quiet, observational drama, which tells the story of a tight-knit group of Black immigrant women trying to survive and make ends meet amid Tunisia’s unwelcoming immigration environment.

This heart-wrenching drama about a makeshift family trying to stay afloat is buoyed by vulnerable performances and some spectacular imagery, even as the script spreads itself thin.

There is much to be said for [Sehiri's] unsensationalistic approach, and for its specificity of detail, even if splitting the narrative three ways means that each of these stories feels shortchanged.
