Reception
Critical Response
"In director-cinematographer Svetlana Cvetko’s ambitious indie drama “Show Me What You Got,” three soulful twentysomethings bare their hearts and bodies to one another in sleek, polyamorous European-flavored style." (LAtimes)[1]
"Svetlana Cvetko’s feature-length directorial debut, “Show Me What You Got,” tells an unconventional love story between an artist named Christine (Cristina Rambaldi), a martial arts instructor, Nassim (Neyssan Falahi), and Marcello (Mattia Minasi), the son of a famous Italian actor. Their life circumstances result in the fate of meeting and quickly immersing into the most beautiful Ménage à Troi I’ve seen on screen." (Irish Film Critic)[2]
"The film is a visual feast, in crisp blacks and whites, depicting three beautiful young people in a romantic adventure which starts on the beaches of Malibu in LA, takes a detour in Joshua Tree National Park, and arrives in a gorgeously rendered Puglia in the natural radiance of southern Italy." (KFPK Film Club)[3]
"The breakout performances of Rambaldi, Neyssan Falahi, and Mattia Minasi are noteworthy as the trio flows and carries one another through the end. They change and adapt, but stay connected." (Film Threat)[4]
