Critics Reviews

The New York Times
A beautifully written, seamlessly directed film with award-worthy performances by Ms. Rampling and Ms. Young.
TV Guide
Director Laurent Cantet's fourth feature abandons the contentious French workplaces of "Human Resources" and "Time Out" for sunnier climes, but this Haitian idyll is an equally excoriating look at labor and exploitation.
