Reception

edit

Ronnie Scheib of Variety wrote that the film "puts its unique stamp on a ubiquitous dead-child theme".[3]

Jordan Mintzer of The Hollywood Reporter praised the performances of Glenn and Henke while writing that the film is "not quite the sum of its parts" and "never builds into either a nail-biting investigation nor into a truly captivating mediation on life and death in America’s heartland" despite "many well-executed sequences".[1]
