“Ducournau is definitely talented when it comes to craft and execution, jarring us with hyper-realistic horror that’s equal parts Cronenberg, Carpenter and Gaspar Noé.
– Jordan Mintzer / The Hollywood Reporter

“A mature work of aching vulnerability”
– Elena Lazic / The Playlist

“Ducornau [is] targeting an emotional heart  beneath a veneer of horror-tinged genre elements”

– Stephanie Bunbury / Deadline

“Describing Alpha is a slippery task – attending to the storylines is less important than surrendering to its mysterious rhythms and primal emotions. Set across two timelines within the bosom of a French-Berber family, it depicts the rupturing relationship between a mother (Golshifteh Farahani) and her adolescent daughter Alpha (Mélissa Boros) amid the reappearance of Uncle Amin (Tanar Rahim), an addict with a virus that is killing him.  —
I felt this film in my bones on my first viewing. On my second viewing, even more so.”
– Sophie Monks Kaufman / The Independent
