“ A melancholy psychological thriller, Sanzaru plays with themes of mortality, abuse, the afterlife, and the hell that we all ultimately trap ourselves in despite our best efforts. It’s not the most elegant at times, but its aim is consistently sincere. Populated by adequate performances, a sincere message, and a writer, director who is aiming for real storytelling and a message, Sanzaru is worth your time.“

– Norman Gidney –
