Reception

Mark Bell of Film Threat called the film "thoughtful and intriguing" and wrote that it "deserves much attention."[2] John Ford of SLUG Magazine called the film "sublime and beautiful".[1] Kenneth R. Morefield of Christianity Today wrote that the film "address psychological and spiritual themes with sensitivity and shows compassion towards those who struggle through one of life's most intensely painful losses."[3]

Justin Lowe of The Hollywood Reporter called Robbin's skills as a director "serviceable rather than distinctive" and "further limited by the film’s obvious budgetary constraints."[4] Ronnie Scheib of Variety wrote that while Robbins’ acting "sounds no false notes", the "unbroken monotony of the proceedings, while arguably realistic, makes for heavy sledding cinematically."[5]
