“ I was not familiar with Ana Mendieta or Carl Andre before reading this, but the talented writers had me all caught up in a matter of moments. A particular hat tip for the line "What were you thinking when I defenestrated?" and for daring to ask and answer the question. Burbano has a knack for taking well-known, mysterious true-life figures and capturing/infusing them with universal truth. The writers here take a holistic, compassionate look at both characters, glorious warts and all. "Silueta" is a passionate, violent, tragic love story beautifully told. ”

“ Amazing and funny and wonderful and heartfelt all at the same time. Will change the way you look at and think about cockroaches, and even have you rooting for them romantically over creepy jerk husbands. As I read this, my jaw dropped open with delight and never closed. So good, it made me envious that I didn't write it. Certain to be a crowd pleaser. ”

“ Lovely. Mothers and daughters around the globe will recognize themselves in this touching, heartwrenching short. Fatima bursts with vibrance and youth, and Maama has her back as only a mother can. It's a snapshot of a family, with its hardships and heartaches, but one gets the sense that these women will not only persist, but thrive together. Even as they drive one another up a wall. Should be performed everywhere. ”

“ An interesting look at two marriages, and what happens when they mix and mingle. Who is more compatible: The couple that argues a lot, or the one that regularly swings together? The one where the wife plucks the husband's ear hair (one of my favorite scenes) or the one where the husband is suddenly drawn to the new neighbor? Hoke peppers a sexy situation with the intimacy of reality, and examines the intricacies of relationships. An underlying current of female strength runs through, as the husbands come to grips with all their fantasies really have to offer. ”
