"Christian Petzold's enigmatic thriller 'Yella' offers a surreal X-ray vision of cutthroat capitalism in 21st-century Germany."New York Times "[S]mart and pleasing....Clocking in at just under 90 minutes, YELLA is a modest, haunting, highly economical work that rewards repeated viewings."Film Comment "[T]his unusual film has the appearance of simply being a well-done drama, but there is considerably more on writer-director Christian Petzold's mind."Los Angeles Times8.586853

Cain and BLOOD SIMPLE...it's entertaining and artfully staged..."A.V.
