“This unconventional love story — which plays like a Richard Linklater film set in the Arctic circle — is a total charmer, and will have you reaching for an Interrail ticket immediately afterwards.” Empire Magazine

“Haarla and Borisov demonstrate impeccable timing and expertly tiny movements as they warm up to one another. Its something like love but without either sex or romance. And its a joy to behold.” Irish Times
