Traveling through the abyss, underworld dog Rainer recounts the six lives of Conann, perpetually put to death by her own future, across eras, myths and ages. From her childhood, a slave of Sanja and her barbarian horde, to her accession to the summits of cruelty at the doors of our world.

3/4

With “She Is Conann,” the writer-director reinforces this fantastical architecture with a clear, propulsive story arc, and the result is his best work to date.

3.5/5

She Is Conann is a politically charged, blood-, sex-, and tears-soaked sword, carving through the helpless arteries to the heart of cinematic mediocrity, and it is Mandico’s strongest vision yet.

It’s more of a fever dream than an actual story, offering a queer counternarrative to the macho vision of the legendary warrior that is as hypnotic as it is gnarly.

9/10

She Is Conann is a brutal ouroboros of human judgment in a world that feels more forewarningly preternatural than logical.

3.5/5

Devoid of the mostly harmless entertainment that are the Schwarzenegger tales, Mandico’s "She Is Conann "will prompt you to reconsider the ways in which you embrace violence, asking you to sit with the discomfort you find in the process.
