Rating: 3.5/4 --
The film is fascinating on every level -- as a portrait of a willing servant in a complex, powerful and inscrutable religious system and a feast of spectacular sights and unusual mundane events in a corner of the world rarely exposed to prying eyes.

Even atheists may find their world rocked by Nati Baratz's Unmistaken Child.
Kansas City Star
How far can an incredibly cute kid and an incredibly beautiful setting go toward making a movie worthwhile? Not far enough, as indicated by Unmistaken Child.
St. Paul Pioneer Press
UMISTAKEN CHILD does more than take you inside a closed culture in an almost unreachable part of the world....Its privileged glimpse deep into unfamiliar spiritual territory has the strength of revelation.
Los Angeles Times
Rating: 3/4 --
You could argue that the film would be stronger if it explained more fully and asked more questions, yet "Unmistaken Child'' stands as a window on a beautiful and mysterious world. The questions it leaves hanging are for us to untangle.

Rating: 4/5 --
At once a compelling story and a meditative experience -- not something you'll find in Hollywood karma.
Jam! Movies
[A] fascinating documentary....Seldom has film presented such a richly ambiguous juxtaposition of modernity, ancient mindset and, to be sure, possible miraculousness.
Wall Street Journal
