Reflections

"A stunningly deeply resonant documentary about notions as seemingly obvious as the value of love over 🏷️#wealth itself." ~ Nick Allen of RogerEbert.com

"Darting from micro to macro and back again, squashing obscene consumption against child beauty pageants and ruinous debt, its structure makes for an unfocused thesis," adding that "the through line... works." ~ Jeannette Catsoulis of The New York Times

"Lays bare society’s obsession with affluence and excess with scalpel-sharp insight" and "makes for bleak and compelling viewing." ~ Joseph Walsh of [Time Out](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_Out_(magazine))**, rated 4 of 5 stars
