An outstanding, innovative, ambitious and formally rigorous essay film, which treats a very contemporary topic of our society in a unique and playful manner. [...] The film provides a complex, multi-layered rendering of the parallel and intertwined histories of nationalist, colonialist and thus racist structures in society. 
— Jury Doc Alliance Award 2019

“Complex and rewarding (...) pointing to cinema’s potential to render strange the act of seeing
and to the fragility of truth as a highly mediated, constantly renegotiated construct.” 
— Ela Bittencourt / Film Comment

"It is through a poetic way that what is found behind these images
can find a place into the visible from which it has been excluded."
— Debordements Magazine

​"The winner of the section is Odyssey for the amazing re-orchestration of the archival sources, 
the original cinematic dispositif for narration, the cleverness of a critical/political analysis 
of the images, shifting from the past to the present and future."
— Paolo Simoni / Head of Jury Istanbul Experimental Film Festival
