Press:

"Perry Ogden has the unblinking eye of a cinema sniper and the soul of an angry poet."

- John Maguire - Film Critic

"Ogden crafts an unsentimental depiction of the impoverished traveler lifestyle, one blighted both by prejudices from outsiders and the community’s own self-destructive tendencies."

- Leslie Felperin - Variety

"Without leaping on a soapbox, Ogden captures a stark sense of the poverty and prejudices his subjects face on a daily basis."

- Matthew Leyland - BBC
