The critical consensus

Tough, empathetic drama from Lukas Dhont about a young ballerina born into the wrong body.

****(*)Allan Hunter, The List, 11/03/2019

Thrilling as a piece of dramatic craft especially one from a first timer. Victor Polster astounds.

David Jenkins, Little White Lies, 13/03/2019

Victor Polster is outstanding as a trans 15-year-old auditioning for ballet school in Lukas Dhont’s intense, emotional drama.

****(*)Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian, 13/03/2019

A sensitive coming-of-age story.

***(*)(*)Alistair Harkness, The Scotsman, 14/03/2019

Lukas Dhont’s controversial film about a trans teenager’s dream to dance is an engaging and sympathetic drama, with an excellent central performance.
