PRESS
“...beautifully written and produced film of half-sisters from a perspective we don't always see. It’s insightful and, best of all, heart-breaking.” - Alan Ng, Film Threat
“The acting is as spot-on as the pacing, a story that lures us in and charms us up before delivering that cold slap of reality.” - Roger Moore, Movie Nation
“a spectacular directorial debut that’s balanced beautifully by dynamic writing, thoughtful direction, and two superb performances from its leads” - Michael Rabehl, Cinequest Film Festival
“Bursting with charm” - Ben Rendich, Woodstock Film Festival
“a sharp family comedy” and “Bo shows an impressively light touch with both the story and the performances” and “an odd couple comedy [that takes a] deeper and more unusual [...] look at what constitutes the ties that bind.” - Stephen Saito, The Moveable Fest
“The arrival of a fresh, new voice on the indie filmmaking scene” - Jordan Raup, The Film Stage
“the exceptionally smart screenplay indicates that [Chelsea Bo] is a perceptive observer of human nature, and her characters are authentically complicated.” and “This affecting family drama is compelling without any tinge of soapiness and a remarkably promising debut feature for writer-director-star Chelsea Bo.” - The Movie Gourmet
“If this film had gotten the same amount of publicity of a say, Napoleon or Barbie, it would certainly be one of the surprise hits of the year. I am going to regard it as such.” - James Snyder, Film Snob Reviews
“hard-hitting emotional rollercoaster about the complexities of sisterhood" - The Citizen
