It tells its tale of love, community and redemption with soap-operatic mood swings and a true believer’s faith in the transcendent powers of music.

Reviews for As It Is in Heaven
Doesn't avoid all the pitfalls, [but] it plays things out quirkily enough to surprise and engage us.
As It Is in Heaven works best as a thematic piece of art. It's a statement on the ugliness of humanity and the power of music to wound, but then heal.
Some may find the melodramatic ending is unsuited to the film's tone, but might well forgive that one negative, given the many pluses.
