The plot is preposterous, offering up not one, but two, saintly females for our hi falutin' delectation. Jun 22, 2013 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

There is much to savour in this poignant feature by the former documentary-maker Andrea Segre: not least its tough, uncliched view of Venice. Jun 20, 2013 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Segre's film captures the misty elision of land and sea in the Veneto lagoon and how it perfectly expresses the characters' yearning placelessness. Jun 19, 2013 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

A thin but attractively opalescent immigrant study, prioritizing exquisite, atmospheric detail over the bigger picture. Jul 4, 2012 | Full Review…

Segre's choice to tell a very personal story, and largely lap at the edges of the issues involved, makes for a wonderfully emotive voyage that works so well precisely because the current was not too strong. Feb 25, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Shun Li and the Poet actually believes in the inherent decency of strangers. Don't hold that against it. Jun 21, 2013 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Francois Couturier's score is overly emphatic in places in tugging at our heartstrings, but the film's gentle humanity is to be cherished. Jun 21, 2013 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Writer-director Segre gives this sensitive story a nicely understated quality that forces us to identify with the central characters in ways that continually catch us off guard. Jun 20, 2013 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

The film has a shiveringly lovely melancholic spirit that clings to your skin like wet jeans. Jun 20, 2013 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

What begins as an honest story soon becomes a frustrating experience, unable to generate enough interest due to the lack of chemistry between the two main characters. Besides, it insists on trying to create some visual and narrative poetry where there is none.
