Babnik premiere Q&A
"There is so much that’s unique and challenging about this movie that it would be churlish to accentuate the negative. As a message to the future, BABNIK marks Adams as a filmmaker to watch."
"I once joked that I couldn't edit my way out of a paper bag, so the audience is stuck in the paper bag with me. Join me inside my latest paper bag. You won't like the experience, but it will give you something to complain about, and there's nothing more cathartic than that."
"Micro in budget, macro in ambition, accomplishment, and scope, Adams's slyly withholding film prompts multiple viewings--and deserves them."

"This second feature by Alejandro Adams confirms him as an arresting talent. [Viewers] may be fascinated to the point of repeat viewings to sort out its myriad characters and half-buried clues."
