Reviews
“Touching and sympathetic.” - Cultural Mining
“A repressive society. A woman determined to disobey the rules imposed on her. We’ve seen that story before, and will again, but here’s a particularly good version of it.” - National Observer
“Emotionally moving.” - In The Seats
“Samia is less about sports than it is about survival.” - The Gate
