Reception edit

Writing for Film Threat, Lorry Kikta praised the film as "a breathtaking visual tour that somehow shows us the entire spirit of the people in only a little over three minutes. It’s very effective and impressive, considering that the creative forces behind it are teenagers."[4]

In December 2019, the film was named to the Toronto International Film Festival's annual year-end Canada's Top Ten list for short films.[5]
