6 / 10
While "The Absence of Eden" lacks narrative originality, it often dazzles visually.

5 / 10
"The Absence of Eden" is a film that means well. Restrictions in the script hinder the film emotionally, which often show up in the actors' performances as well.

5 / 10
Fine performances and powerful visuals only partially compensate for the inevitable air of familiarity that accompanies Marco Perego’s debut feature. Although the filmmaker provides his real-life spouse Zoe Saldaña with one of her best roles in a long while

A border drama that's compelling and only slightly political
