River of Grass Ratings & Reviews
Beyond the Cinerama Dome
Tina Kakadelis
Rivers of Grass is beguiling in its natural beauty and heavy on the soul when it addresses what humans have done to our planet. It's a plea for conservation, one that existed long before Worztel's camera started filming.

Dave Giannini
River of Grass is both a travelogue and a call to action. Especially given our current political climate (one in which our planet is taking a terrifying back seat), its message could not be more important.

Alan French
Sasha Wortzel contextualizes her [Marjory Stoneman Douglas'] brilliant writings on the region with the world as it exists today. This allows River of Grass to not only speak to the timeless nature of Douglas' words, but also her continued relevance.
Cool People Have Feelings, Too. (Substack)
Marya E. Gates
Wortzel weaves together Douglas' writing, archival footage, present-day interviews with Miccosukee educator and activist Betty Osceola, and more to craft an poetic ode to her home and plea for conservation before it's too late.

Rubén Rosario
River of Grass is a steel dandelion, a wistful look back that points the way forward. It jumps in with eyes wide open.
In Review Online
Chris Cassingham
"The result is a document of sense as much as history, in which the viewer explores the breadth of environmental resilience across the Everglades today, as well as Wortzel's own memories of a childhood spent amongst its splendor."
Paste Magazine
Jim Vorel
Both a personal diary and tribute to Everglades conservationist Marjory Stoneman Douglas, River of Grass weaves a potent spell of greenery.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Poetic and illuminating.
Hey, Have You Seen ...?
Jared Mobarak
It's an effective aesthetic choice insofar as showing just how much of what we see and experience is in fact manipulated by unseen forces. So much of what we know is actually what we've been told.
MovieJawn
Zakiyyah Madyun
A truly creative feat of environmental storytelling, River of Grass is a quiet marvel that listens more than it speaks, and makes all the bigger impact for it.
Mac the Movie Guy
John Stark
The sounds of the Everglades game through. This is what Florida should be known for. Take a trip down south and see what people like Marjorie Stoneman-Douglas fought so hard to preserve, and this documentary so beautifully captures.
Film Inquiry
Soham Gadre
It works as both a documentary and personal essay film, giving the movie a fresh experimental angle that allows it to reach beyond just teaching people about the Everglades.
POV Magazine
Pat Mullen
A vivid love letter to the land and a call for its protection.
Eye for Film
Amber Wilkinson
Although it begins with talk of the impact of Hurricane Ian, we'll come to learn that it's humans who are the architects of the area's greatest problems.
Moveable Fest
Stephen Saito
A variety of perspectives add up to something as exquisitely crystalline, allowing you to get lost in its beauty without losing sight of how easily broken it can be.

Sarah Boslaugh
Wortzel builds her case primarily through the stories of individuals who share their personal relationships with the region, paired with sometimes stunning cinematography by J. Bennett...

Robert Daniels
Wortzel's film is a clarion call to protect Florida's greatest resource.
