Alissa Simon of
Variety referred to the title character as "one of the most coolly calculating
antiheroines to grace the silver screen."
Daily Film Dose says the film "is a resolutely grim, haunting, beautifully crafted and powerfully acted story of a young woman. This is a heart-breaking movie." For
Film Monthly, "a
Call Girl is an exciting movie to experience because it is a film that seems to value character over plot, and substance over style. With a elegantly written script that creates real three-dimensional characters, and a sparse aesthetic style, director Damjan Kozole's affecting character study creates a distinctive mood that is hard to shake off.” The French newspaper
Le Figaro says, "lie by lie, the heroine is becoming more appealing, thanks to the incredible performance of Nina Ivanišin. It is she who carries the film, and thanks to her the film is a 'must see.'" According to
Moving Pictures Magazine, "
Slovenian Girl is a haunting meditation on capitalism and
the world's oldest profession", while Mike Goodridge in
Screen Daily says "it's a clever metaphor for the dubious values of capitalism and personal gain which have spread fast through the new Europe." ==Awards==
