The Ister Ratings & Reviews
Laramie Movie Scope
Robert Roten
A very ambitious film that journeys up the Danube from its mouth to it's source('s), noting the history of places, people and thought along its 3,000 kilometer length.
San Francisco Chronicle
John McMurtrie
A film about profound ideas deserved more imagination.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
At over three hours, The Ister is challenging -- and then some. But what's wrong with challenging?
New York Times
Nathan Lee
This uncompromisingly highbrow video essay voyages from the mouth of the Danube to the source, pausing en route for head-spinning detours into thickets of philosophy.
Slant Magazine
Eric Henderson
Is it fair to say that the language of philosophy is more or less writ in the manner of Final Jeopardy?
Village Voice
J. Hoberman
The headiest, head-scratching-est, damnedest, most demanding movie opening this week in New York.
