REVIEWS 
'A perfect mix of blood and pathos, the destruction of the nuclear family has never been more
perfectly illustrated (and married to Little Red Hiding Hood tropes!) than in Ella.'
Angie Driscoll, WSFF

 
'...a gloriously messed up Red Riding Hood tale.'
Torontoist
'...9 minutes of haunting beauty...'
FlickFeast
 
'...a nearly wordless and intense subversion of the Red Riding Hood story.'
Critizise This
 
'...quite possibly one of the more perverse re-imaginings of Little Red Riding Hood I’ve seen'
Final Girl Project
