Breathless pummels viewers with nearly the same ferocity and frequency with which the characters assault each other.
Jason Anderson, Toronto Star
Fresh
Amid the violent outbursts are moments of warmth and tenderness, some featuring the protagonist's young nephew, the best hope for breaking the generational cycles of domestic tragedy.
Andrea Gronvall, Chicago Reader
Fresh
Blending a thoughtful cycle-of-violence subplot with a piercing study of how even the most hateful and isolated people inevitably affect those around them, 'Breathless' is a challenging, dynamic experience.
Tom Huddlestone, Time Out
