Critic Reviews of "Angels Wear White (Les anges portent du blanc)"
Chicago ReaderJune 27, 2018Shooting largely with a handheld camera, Qu generates a jittery energy that makes the characters' stress palpable. This feeling escalates as the investigation closes in.
San Francisco ChronicleMay 31, 2018Qu fleshes out her characters to expose the societal and familial pressures that tend to limit options for females.
Los Angeles TimesMay 17, 2018In its perceptions and mood, "Angels Wear White" plays like acutely serious female noir.
RogerEbert.comMay 04, 2018A tough and unsparing drama that vividly brings to light the kind of narrative too many people have endured over the years.
New York TimesMay 03, 2018This all sounds grim, and it is. But the story grabs you. Ms. Qu shoots the sturdily constructed scenario with unshowy sharpness.
Village VoiceMay 02, 2018Qu unpacks much that matters in Angels Wear White, including the abuse of power and importance of status and wealth in Chinese society, but her most thoughtful, nuanced observations involve female sexuality.
Concrete PlaygroundJuly 30, 2018A poised and perceptive crime drama... every frame leaves an imprint, both visually and emotionally.
Georgia StraightJuly 26, 2018The subject sounds heavy, but writer-director Vivian Qu, following her superb debut, Trap Street, is more poet than social activist.
NOW TorontoJuly 26, 2018Anchored by two strong performances...Qu rarely veers away from one girl or the other, a smart and sensitive decision to witness and digest the world from that perspective.
San Francisco ExaminerMay 31, 2018The film offers a thoughtful, textured and quietly furious criticism of a sexist Chinese system and society.
The Stranger (Seattle, WA)May 30, 2018Remarkable youth performances anchor Vivian Qu's rigorous procedural Angels Wear White, about the adults who exploit children-and the systemic misogyny that protects them.
South China Morning PostMay 18, 2018A bleak, bold and quietly seething look at the misogynistic culture faced by young girls in contemporary China.
