Playing out in real time, SOFT & QUIET is a runaway train that follows a single afternoon in the life of an elementary school teacher, Emily, who organizes an inaugural club meeting of like-minded women. When they all decide to move the meeting to Emily's house to keep the wine flowing, they stop at the local store to pick up refreshments. At the store, an altercation breaks out between a woman from Emily's past and the group, leading to a volatile chain of events.

Critics Consensus

A painfully timely horror-fueled thriller, Soft & Quiet forces the viewer to confront the ugly underbelly of modern American race relations.

3.5/5

It is a risky film, not for all audiences, but it exposes the thoughts of white supremacy that are increasingly present in society. [Full Review in Spanish]

5/5

I could actually feel my stomach churning and see my arms trembling as I held them over my face ... I was anticipating a lot of discomfort and hard-to-watch moments in Soft & Quiet, but this film exceeded even those expectations.

The terrifying thing about this film is that it allows us to see how movements of destruction of others for ethnic reasons can emerge from unexpected places. [Full review in Spanish]
