Review by R.M. ARANDA

What I liked

Soleil has crafted a powerful sad clown piece that starts out playful and light, and gets darker and darker as it goes. This piece is very vulnerable and raw, and moved my partner and I to tears. At times it felt like moving through quicksand — it pulls you in, and in comes a torrent of emotion. Unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. This is a must-see for anyone who has a complicated relationship with a family member, and the constant reckonings we must make with those we love.

What I didn't like

N/A

My overall impression

A deep, deep, deep dive into memory, grief, and cycles of trauma… through the fisheye lens of a clown.
