Imdb
- Get ready for a journey that is as entertaining as it is rewarding, where laughter and reflection mingle for a result that is simply unforgettable.
France Bleu
- Here and There is therefore a funny little comedy with a starting premise that reverses the roles (…) The duo Ahmed Sylla and Hakim Jemili work very well, and the feature film takes us on a journey through the different regions of France as well as Senegal
Culturellement Vôtre
- Focusing on depicting a country that is both fiercely attached to its heritage and open to diversity, the film strikes the right balance between laughter and emotion to take us on a journey rich in misunderstandings but also in surprising encounters and superb landscapes. The result is an initiatory comedy tha tis very much in tune with the times, with a salutary spirit of self-mockery.
RTBF
- The film chooses humor and lightness to denounce racism and deep–rooted prejudices, sparing neither cousin – although it does paint a less flattering portrait of Sékou, who prefers to be called Cédric in France, portrayed as “whiter than white”, with his artificial Parisian accent and his car rides to the sound of Cabrel.
