The audience's standing ovation at Sundance speaks volumes about the film's impact and resonance.

“The Sundance audience reacted warmly to the film, hooting and rising to their feet when Reynicke and the cast took the stage after the premiere. Reynicke gestured to the cast members as they joined her and took turns exchanging long, swaying hugs. “They are the film,” she says. “Please.””
