Woman at War takes a sidelong glance at what it means to look, sound and act like a fighter - one hellbent on serving the world's greater good. May 2, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Hollywood would make it a thriller; Erlingsson keeps his politics as teasingly agnostic as his tone, his Icelandic landscape raw, strange, and like everywhere, defended by more Hallas all the time. May 1, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Highlights not only the rage and ferocity of women's activism, but also its playfulness, generosity and tenderness. It's a delightful film: beautifully shot, full of joyous symbolism, and with a deft central performance from Halldóra Geirharðsdóttir. Dec 10, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

For Benedikt Erlingsson more is more, and so he tries paths that are sometimes detours, but he mainly seduces with effective and at times convincing and vital stories. [Full Review in Spanish] Sep 26, 2019 | Full Review…
