"
A beautiful fire of a film, a burning passion of art and anger, nihilistic rage manifested into incredible illustration, We Got a Problem with Groundwater is a triumph."
- UK Film Review (We Got a Problem with Groundwater)

"At only five minutes long, WE GOT A PROBLEM WITH GROUNDWATER does a phenomenal job of visualizing the life long toll that being a member of the working class can have on a person – and on a community."
- Take 2 Indie Review (We Got a Problem with Groundwater)

"A powerful and timely film"
- Robert Gordon, director of the Oscar-nominated Best of Enemies (Bombie)
