"This debut feature from Kit Zauhar is a raw, personal story, and shows that she will be one to keep an eye on her future work."
"Another one dealing with kind of in between years and adolescents and teen and those compliment years, so I feel like people who enjoy those type of films will find some things to definitely like here too."
"I randomly stumbled upon Kit Zauhar’s two movies a few months back and really liked them. I didn’t think they’d be available on physical media, but was thrilled to see it while checking out the Vinegar Syndrome Black Friday. Slipcover looks great and I’m hoping to find This Closeness next!"
"This quirky film put a smile on my face. Truly gave a feel of early independent film from 1990's. The Performance of the actors are good and leaves you thinking about tge characters. The Transfers of the bluray is excellent. The Slipcover of the bluray is very nice."
"Thought provoking, cringe inducing movie. Mumble core at it's best! Nearly exclusive shorts. Beautiful edition!"
"Great performances and cinematography. I just loved it."
"If you are looking for lesser known modern independent films I would recommend this one"
"Man, I’ve seen hate online regarding this movie. And sure, it’s no “Slackers” or “Clerks” or any other revolutionary indie film. But it has heart, it speaks from a very interesting point in life that comes and we get to a point where we don’t know if it will go. Kit Zahuar is a promising director IMO, especially her shorts which to me are her best work. Definitely gonna give it another watch soon."
"Wasn’t a fan of this one, was a blind buy for me during a sale, Great quality though others may like this maybe I just didn’t understand the subject manner"
"Was really interested in this one, and the slipcover design sealed the deal."
