Quote:
"The ambient yet groove-laden score by Noia acts like a third character, lushly sweeping through scenes while lending them a thrilling momentum. As the layers of Jasmine's sexuality move closer together—and then threaten to fly apart—desire turns into suspense. In Below Her Mouth, the title can be read as a sexual allusion. But it also signals the futility of trying to hide our innate desires, let alone behind something as flimsy as words."
-- Christopher Kompanek
