Some will find the film compelling, but underneath the riddles it's basically a self-important proclamation of "who the hell knows?"

Several story threads about consciousness and perception intertwine in this film by video installation artist Daniel Cockburn. You Are Here is a smartly-crafted commentary on our modern-day existence. In the film, comprised of interconnected mini-narratives, characters find themselves trapped in bizarre social experiments of their own making.
We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.

The New York Times by Jeannette Catsoulis
Moments of insight flare like fireflies and disappear, whether from underfinancing or overambition is unclear. Either way, this maddening mind game is likely to be more enthusiastically received in philosophy classrooms than in the multiplex.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) by Liam Lacey
Smart, anxious and weirdly funny, the first feature from Toronto video artist Daniel Cockburn connects a series of scenarios that gradually begin to loop into each other.
Overlapping story threads, voices, and imagery result in an atmosphere of disquieting psychological confusion.
