‘This is an absolutely extraordinary work of art, done in a way that suggests both Saturday morning cartoons and Sunday-night prestige-TV dramedies. It’s also a nine-Kleenex-box movie and earns every saline-soaked tissue eventually wadded at your feet.’ David Fear, Rolling Stone
‘A wordless wonder that will live long in the memory.’ Michael Leader, Little White Lies
‘If any further evidence were needed to support the theory that we are enjoying a new boom time for quality animation, then this is it.’ Wendy Ide, Observer
