“…Despite being ancient, some tales never get old. “Holy Grail” promises to be as much a feast for the eyes as it is for the heart, with a sweeping score, delicious period-specific costumes and choreography that pays deference to the myriad adaptations that came before…” - Tristan Bruns - Holy Grail preview for See Chicago Dance

“Those who engage with the film’s calm, visually captivating pace will experience an almost meditative exploration of how much invisible work lies behind the magic of seemingly effortless movement. A delight for dance enthusiasts and cinephiles who appreciate experimentation.” - Andres Dehne - review from Haller Tagblatt Schwäbisch Hall
