“Excellent Film” – New York Festivals

“The most heart-breaking scene of Best’s new movie, Dirty Games, takes place on the banks of a river in Triyuga in the Udayapur district of Nepal. A woman on her knees screams to the heavens. She has sunk to the ground after being confronted by the cold, dead face of her husband.” – The Daily Beast

“The film is at its best when showing the actual human cost of these stories we read, then immediately forget.” – South China Morning Post
