“What a breath of fresh air! It’s a precious, precious, very simple but very touching movie.” – Ang Lee. “As warming as hot soup on a frosty winter’s day, Lunana feels like a timely tale for pandemic-weary audiences, who should embrace a film that explores a longing for a more authentic, meaningful existence.”
– Screen Daily
