The Old Young Crow is the kind of film that you can watch multiple times and still discover new elements in the frame. The attention to detail is breathtaking and incredibly meticulous, the frame constantly filled with elements that either move the narrative forward or build the general atmosphere of the film. The impressive craft ensures seamless transitions between the contrasting styles, and it’s because both styles interact with each other so effectively that the film immerses us in its universe, granting us access to Mehrad’s memories and how he grasps them today.' - S/W Curator, Céline Roustan
