Maria is a high school dropout whose father dies of a heart attack after she shares the news — of her pregnancy.

What are critics saying?
TV Guide Magazine by Ethan Alter
Trust is stylishly photographed and crammed with quirky, offbeat incidents and dialogue.
He's made two features, "The Unbelievable Truth" and now Trust, and both are cool, strikingly original case studies of middle-class anomie.
Austin Chronicle by Marjorie Baumgarten
There's a serious teen angst movie somewhere in all this as well as an unflinching look at suburbia.
Entertainment Weekly by Owen Gleiberman
Trust, the cult-movie view turns precious and smug.
Rolling Stone by Peter Travers
Within its small, darkly funny range, Trust is an exceptional film that stays alert to the mysteries of love.
Chicago Sun-Times by Roger Ebert
Hal Hartley is on his way to creating a distinctive film world, and although Trust is not a successful film, you can see his vision at work, and it's intriguing.
