The Fever Ratings & Reviews
Nashville Scene
Nadine Smith
It's esoteric and elusive, but still tethered to a kind of cinematic ethnography; sometimes it's direct, sometimes it's far away, a contrast that can just lead to frustration.
Austin Chronicle
Josh Kupecki
It is to Da-Rin's talent as a filmmaker that her political and ideological intent never overshadow this deceptively simple and astute tale of a sick man yearning for his home, and finally hearing the call of the wild.
Variety
Manuel Betancourt
With its recursive structure mirroring Justino's own monotonous days, "The Fever" languidly creates a portrait of a man immobilized by his own inaction.
The Scarecrow
Robert Horton
With its soundscape of insects and rainfall, and its keen eye for lived-in interiors and fluorescent-lit urban in-between spaces, The Fever is, minute-by-minute, a compelling experience.
The Lens
Andrew Wyatt
A slow, still film that journeys from grounded realism into the realm of dreamlike allegory.
RogerEbert.com
Roxana Hadadi
An urgent portrait of a kind of life our desperate sprint toward modernity has incorrectly deemed as lesser-than.
Los Angeles Times
Carlos Aguilar
Subtly sensorial more than conventionally narrative, "The Fever" inhabits an ethereal plane that centers Indigenous beliefs and cultural practices not as primitive but valid modes of engagement.
KDHX (St. Louis)
Diane Carson
Régis Myrupu, who won best actor at the Locarno Film Festival, brings a regal presence to Justino.
New York Times
Devika Girish
By showing us the world through Justino's searching gaze, Da-Rin gives us an elusive but powerful sense of the limits of our own vision.
Slant Magazine
Pat Brown
In the film, Manaus is a place of irreconcilable tension between the lush natural world and the cold, metallic world of industrial modernity.
In Review Online
Luke Gorham
Clear influences begin to undo a bit of the dark spell [The Fever] has cast, the cribbing a subversion of its very specificity.
