“A potent and blistering indictment of a society [Director Ilaria] Borrelli clearly sees as misogynistic and cruel to any young woman who does not fit in within its narrow parameters.” – Matt Davison, The Sound View.
“Gorgeous, powerful, and thought-provoking.” – Through Women’s Eyes International Film Festival
“The Goat also shines a spotlight ‘On barbaric traditions still practiced in so many areas of the world that devastate the young women and girls in these communities, such as marriage by abduction, gang rape, deadly childbirth conditions.” – Variety.
