"A unique document. A pure reflection of exclusion. What Saxer achieves questions the idea of justice, state abandonment and prison bureaucracy, where the borders of prison and freedom are territorially subtle."
"A rare example of a first cousin of Herzog's vast filmography. One inevitably hears the echo of the Herzogian documentary: the long panoramas, the views on nature... The role of Saxer in Herzog's films would be an element to be explored and, vice versa, the imprint left by the director on his producer."
"The only document of this experimental penal colony, a place where a camera had never entered and which has rarely been written about. The precious testimony shows us an alternative system to closed and overcrowded prisons. Between utopia and reality, Sepa proves to be a valid proposal to implement a real and effective re-education of the prisoner."
