“writer-director Rebecca Snow skilfully maintains the youthful perspective, which keeps the actual violence off-screen while giving everything a sharply matter-of-fact tone.….. Filmed in northern Canada, the settings are remarkably realistic. It’s horrifying to see men with guns stalking these young boys like animals, and the filmmakers make sure it’s not too scary. But their perilous predicament still feels intense, especially when they rescue a lost infant. Snow maintains a sharp point of view, remaining with the resourceful Max as he works out ways to get through a number of potentially harrowing situations.” Review from Rich Cline #shadowsonthewalluk
