Review

Guardian wrote about the film, "The effect is repetitive, relentless – much like the events themselves. It is a very bleak picture, something to be compared perhaps with Garry Keane and Andrew McConnell’s film Gaza about life under siege" The Times wrote "It’s an 18-certificate horror show, but culled from real life." The Telegraph rated it 5 out of 5 and write "Assembling a memorial to the dead is all this film is doing, and everything it needs to do. We’re not embroiled in disputing anything: in terms of what’s strictly on screen, there’s nothing to dispute"
