"Extraordinary access... Thrilling... It's as if a Frederick Wiseman film had been reimagined by William Blake."
- A.O. Scott, New York Times, Sundance Wrap-Up: 6 Movies We Like
"Exquisitely intimate"
- Guy Lodge, Variety, ‘A House Made of Splinters’ Review: A Heart-Tugging Documentary Portrait of Children in Limbo
"Extraordinary"
- Jack Seale, The Guardian, A House Made of Splinters Review
"The trust Wilmont – who acted as his own cinematographer – builds with the children is nothing short of remarkable. Every minute we spend with them feels unguarded and natural, whether it’s the look of quiet resignation when a mother fails to pick up the phone or the almost magical joyous immediacy of a sparkler in the dark."
- Amber Wilkinson, Screen Daily, ‘A House Made Of Splinters’: Thessaloniki Review
"This is a delicately observed film that affords its subjects empathy and respect."
- Pat Mullen, POV Magazine, A House Made of Splinters Review: Humanity and Heartache
