A Stray Reviews
St. Paul Pioneer Press
Chris Hewitt
It's a gem.
The Playlist
Oktay Ege Kozak
A Stray is a worthy indie drama for anyone looking to get a new perspective on immigrant life in the U.S.
RogerEbert.com
Omer Mozaffar
In addition to being a tender film about a man finding redemption in caring for a canine, Syeed's pious film is refreshing, showing us a corner of America that we never see.
The MacGuffin
Brooke Corso
A Stray, directed by Musa Syeed, is about the symbiosis of faith in God and in oneself.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
A parabolic film about a Somali refugee who lives on the streets of Minneapolis with his devoted dog.
Chicago Reader
Leah Pickett
Despite the touchy subject matter, Syeed avoids preaching and instead focuses on the protagonist's day-to-day struggle; the understated drama benefits also from Yoni Brook's crisp cinematography and Abdirahman's multifaceted performance.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
The substantial pleasures of the movie are supplemented by the gratification of seeing an emerging talent with concerns far outside the conventional indie realm asserting himself with such authority.
Village Voice
Chuck Wilson
Most of the turns of plot feel organic, ours to discover, as long as we're paying attention.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
The writer-director's seemingly random yet never aimless narrative avoids predictable sentimental notes as well as any explicit backstory, leaving us to fill in the blanks.
Film Journal International
Shirley Sealy
A truly empathetic look at the immigrant experience in today's jittery American "homeland."
