Entertainment Reviews:
A muscular debut, modest in the scale of its storytelling, but not in the empathy it inspires and though it may have taken years to complete, "AWOL" was well worth the wait.

Moveable Fest
Rating: B+ --
[Lola] Kirke gives an amazing performance, but it's [Breeda] Wool who has the harder role, and effortlessly shines.

A Reel of One's Own
Cinematographer Gal Deren's lensing of Rust Belt locations finds a place both lovely to linger in and worth leaving, matching the bittersweet sound of the folky songs Kirke sings while the two characters are alone.

Hollywood Reporter
"AWOL" holds attention with its strong lead performances, nicely etched support turns, and nuanced portrait of a downwardly mobile "heartland" Caucasian America too seldom portrayed in movies given the large chunk of the populace it encompasses.

Variety
Rating: 3/5 --
An affecting clash between yearning to escape your fate, and knowing that truly leaving something or somewhere behind isn't easy.

ArtsHub
AWOL is a very modest indie - and it could really have used a re-think on its gratingly obvious score - but it's rewarding in a lot of ways.

Decider
Every scene is both light on its feet and weighted with potential import; we never know what is leading where until we're at our destination.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Joey (Lola Kirke) is an aimless high school graduate searching for a way out of Pennsylvania coal country. A visit to an Army recruiting office appears to provide a path. However, a chance encounter with magnetic Rayna (Breeda Wool), a slyly seductive housewife and mother neglected by her long-haul trucker husband, changes Joey's trajectory irrevocably. As Joey falls more in love with Rayna, clouded judgment leads her down a path she can't turn back from.
