“The kind of small, deeply personal American film that rarely surfaces even in art theaters these days… [Zentelis] has an unpretentious, effortless style and is highly skilled with her first-rate cast. Mainstream moviegoers at their local AMC willing to stray from Hollywood fare may find themselves pleasantly surprised.” —Los Angeles Times full article…

Five out of five stars: “Observant, touching, funny and smart.” —Orlando Sentinel full review…

“It's virtually impossible to watch the movie and not be moved… Evergreen is a calm eye in the aftermath of a hurricane of summer movies. It doesn't have lots of stars or a big budget. It wasn't written by committee or rewritten by test screenings. It's a brave statement by a talented new filmmaker, brought to life by a wonderful cast. And it deserves your attention.” —Washington DC Journal

“A rare film that's about social class in American life, and Bellingham writer-director Enid Zentelis explores its hidden structure and silent barriers in a novel, subtle way that makes its points without hitting us over the head with them.” —Seattle Post-Intelligencer full article…

“An affecting slice of low-watt indie filmmaking that goes where few American movies bother: below the poverty line.” —Boston Globe

“Addie Land is a wonder… Zentelis and Land are two new artists that promise exciting futures.” —Seattle Times
