Reception
Critical reception Davide Abbatescianni from Cineuropa wrote: "All in all, this “motion-picture book” choice is fascinating, even though it may become harder and harder to follow as time passes. It also creates some distance from the subjects, who all seem to be part of the book's “illustrations”."
