Silent Souls Ratings & Reviews
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
It's lovely and slow and melancholic and short - 75 minutes, yet you feel you've been gone for an epoch or two.
Reeling Reviews
Robin Clifford
"Silent Souls" will not make it to the multiplex but that is OK. This is one for the real film buffs out there.
Boston Phoenix
Gerald Peary
Fedorchenko's wistful film has echoes of Parajanov magic realism combined with a Chekhovian melancholy. It's poetic in the most muted way, a chamber road movie.
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
This beautiful, provocative film is like a road trip into a dream, an immersion into something quite mystical yet bound to the natural earth.
San Francisco Chronicle
David Lewis
An astonishing, haunting, sensual, lyrical, bleak and ultimately beautiful road-trip movie.
Chicago Reader
Ben Sachs
Rife with earthy details and poetic associations, the movie often advances like a daydream.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
This profound and immensely touching film in only 75 perfect minutes achieves the profundity of an epic.
Not Coming to a Theater Near You
Michael Nordine
And then there are those birds: quietly pleasant and even charming, they contain more than a few qualities the rest of Silent Souls unfortunately lacks.
Washington Post
Stephanie Merry
The Russian drama unfolds as a series of perplexing, fascinating snapshots, yet the predominant story about saying goodbye - to people and customs - are universal.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
There's a trancelike quality to its best moments, but too much of it is artfully boring.
Monsters and Critics
Ron Wilkinson
An eternal love story on the frozen plains of Russia told as two friends journey on a wake in the ancient Merjan tradition.
rec.arts.movies.reviews
Louis Proyect
An astonishing work of art that has the visceral impact of Stravinsky's "Rite of Spring".
NPR
Mark Jenkins
Director Alexei Fedorchenko doesn't use sheer duration to immerse viewers in the spiritual journey. Not counting the credits, this beautifully photographed and quietly evocative movie is barely 70 minutes long.
New York Post
Sara Stewart
"Silent Souls" is hardly long, yet the camera's repeated focus on the wintry, gray country road they're traveling can feel somewhat ponderous -- like life itself, as one of the guys in the film might wryly point out.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
A melancholy poem to love, loss and the tug of tradition.
Filmcritic.com
Christopher Null
fails to adequately capture a forgotten subset and trivialized culture disappearing in the heart of Russia
Projection Booth
Rob Humanick
An elusive, poignantly earthbound odyssey.
AV Club
Alison Willmore
The sincerity of the film's thoughts on loss and longing, on the burdens of grief, and on reawakened awareness of existence, is always painfully heartfelt.
Village Voice
J. Hoberman
At 75 minutes, Silent Souls has the sustained flow of a musical composition.
Slant Magazine
Chris Cabin
Fedorchenko's chief fascination seems to be with the dichotomies inherent in the modern rehashing of rituals based in folklore and mysticism.
