"It is a compelling, visceral script that feels honest and searching.
Ultimately, it’s heart-breaking, but there is the possibility of hope amidst the tragedy."

“TRANSGRESSING is an important and urgent script. Exploring the moral consequences of poverty on a single family, the struggles they face are sadly all too real. TRANSGRESSING could not come at a more relevant time as society stares down the barrel of a post-pandemic economic recession. Its themes will resonate widely, and it deserves to be seen.”

“TRANSGRESSING beautifully decolonises one of the greatest 19th century classical novels and offers a feminist interpretation of CRIME AND PUNISHMENT. This fresh transnational appropriation is a great 21st century addition to the existing cinematic adaptations of this beloved classic.”

“The script is really good, excellent sense of escalating family desperation.
Very visual. No criticism to the story at all. Really well done.”

"We’ve enjoyed the script, and we would like to congratulate you for this raw, engaging, and entertaining piece of writing. Writing a story involving complex themes like poverty, alcohol, and sex, is not easy, it requires a good description of actions, convincing dialogue, and an ability to keep the reader engaged, so congrats on the script. The script works as a powerful tool and we found ourselves easily drowning in the story with Sonia and the sacrifices she needed to make to support her family."

"This is a hard-hitting, emotional and thought-provoking film. Painful to watch - a fantastic short and all actors contribute wonderfully to the realistic, rounded experience."
