"The film is as beautifully composed as Uzzle's pictures. The director Jethro Waters also shot the movie, a subtle feast of light and color."

New York Times

"Warm and evocative cinematography, quirky and wonderful animated interstitials, lavish use of interesting music, and interviews with Uzzle’s subjects combine for a thoughtful and frequently profound and emotional portrait of an artist who has never been more engaged with his craft and message."

LA Weekly Times

"A moving and essential documentary. Uzzle surprises us at every turn with both his sensitivity and unflagging energy, creating a 'culture of respect' that pays off in profound, unforgettable images."
