Reviews:
Nick Bradshaw from Time Out wrote:
"Layering images and texts, ideas and allusions into a portrait of a self-occupied 'annotator' - a man trying to find a space for himself between the lines of life - it's quite recondite, but dreamily different, and packs a plaintive beauty".

Adam Pew from the National Museum of Photography, Film and Television wrote:
"Full of Borgesian riddles and allegories, and criss-crossed with puzzles and stories, Christophe Gérard's whimsical,
imaginative short is a delightful fable of worlds within worlds".
