Quest

A moving, quite amazing documentary.

There’s enough material in these years to make for half a dozen more focused documentaries, but none could hope to be as heartbreaking and redemptive as this panoramic longview.

[A] tender, humane, gently probing film.

In the end, what Quest gives you is not just well-earned empathy but the pleasure of the Raineys' company, and that is what genuinely makes it worth seeking out and seeing ASAP.

It is Olshefski’s humanist portraiture of one family’s quotidian lives that is certain to stir audiences.

Filmmaker Jonathan Olshefski illuminates the rich, strife-filled lives of these extraordinary people.

Sadly, the problems affecting the Raineys, the African American family whose north Philadelphia home accommodates this heartening documentary, are all too familiar: poverty, drugs, gun violence.
