"If you like quiet, meditative supernatural thrillers, you will ultimately enjoy The Wind quite a bit."

—

Film Threat

"If you're thinking "Repulsion by John Ford," you're more on the right track than you could possibly know."

—

Rolling Stone

"Ultimately more allegorical than literal. It's not about history, or pioneer life, or bloodthirsty ghosts. It's about a loneliness so overwhelming that it becomes terrifying."

—

Los Angeles Times

"This pioneer chiller shines a gender-specific spotlight on the ways isolation and hardship can ravage a woman's mind."

—

The New York Times

"It's refreshing to see such an original stab at this type of indie genre-bender, especially one told from a strictly female point of view."

—

Hollywood Reporter

"Doesn't seek to make infallible heroes of its women, but to understand and empathize with even their most unforgivable acts. And it's a hugely promising debut in terms of Tammi's steady, assured directorial craft."
