"Sami Blood" is a beautiful, haunting film, anchored by a startlingly accomplished lead performance. It has the feeling of a distant memory - one that is neither entirely pleasant nor painful, but persistent. June 29, 2017 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

While "Sami Blood" can sometimes seem didactic, Ms. Kernell, who has Sami heritage, richly conveys a sense of the time and place, with elegant shots that glide through the Nordic wilderness. June 1, 2017 | Full Review…

Sami Blood tells a very familiar story, but the hyper-specificity of its telling renders it a wholly new and quietly profound experience. June 1, 2017 | Rating: B | Full Review…

While structurally familiar in all its narrative beats, Kernell's film is also inherently unique regarding not only the particular populous it represents, but sincerely affecting as a testament to the tribulations associated with the act of "passing." October 10, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Although the film's impact may be different for each viewer, the universal theme of struggling for acceptance is felt by all, and Sami Blood is a terrific example of this feeling portrayed onscreen. August 6, 2018 | Full Review…
