Critiques

"... a mesmerizing documentary tribute"
- Ms. Magazine

"Lorde tells her story eloquently, too involved in the evolutionary struggle to waste time on regrets and bitterness, too involved in life to fear death."
- Time Out Film Guide

"Lorde's charismatic personality and her importance as a dynamic force and role model for younger generations make for an informative and enlightening documentary. The film interweaves interesting archival footage, evocative music and revealing conversations with her family, companions and friends. Extensive interviews with Lorde, conducted over the last years of her life, provide the core of the narrative, which is punctuated by recitations of her poetry. A LITANY FOR SURVIVAL exhibits the enchanting personality of an unusual woman, considered in some circles a counterpart to Malcolm X."
- Emanuel Levy, Variety

"Fierce, fighting passion pervades A Litany for Survival an affecting documentary...excellent both for those unfamiliar with Lorde's work, and for those who wish to hear Lorde's words read in her own rich, resonant voice."
- Seattle Times
