"Stunningly beautiful and quietly powerful, this is a portrait of a vanishing way of life and of a determined woman who's just trying to make her way in the world."
★★★★

★★★★
- Simran Hans, The Observer

"You might wonder whether the footage has been too neatly edited (the lighting is quite often honey-toned), but the tale is convincing all the same."
★★★★
- Edward Porter, Sunday Times

"Although it starts as a meditation on the hardship and rhythms of rural life, Ljubomir Stefanov and Tamara Kotevska's documentary becomes something more intimate."
★★★★
- Ed Potton, The Times

"Fancy a northern Macedonian film about beekeeping? "You will, Oscar, you will," I am tempted to say."
★★★★
- Nigel Andrews, Financial Times

★★★★
- Larushka Ivan-Zadeh, Metro
