“Dorsey’s filmmaking style has become more similar to the impressionist approach of her fellow Canadian the late Jean-Marc Vallée.”
— The Globe and Mail
“Dorsey is proving to be more adept at marshaling the opportunities of commercial filmmaking than her contemporaries. While bigger does not always mean better, she demonstrates a real mastery of the tools and resources at her disposal. There’s nothing wrong with going for gold.”
— The Globe and Mail
“Writer-director Nicole Dorsey’s talent and confidence are on full display in her first feature-length film.”
— Cinema Axis
“[Black Conflux] is plainly the work of a skilled filmmaker with ample future potential.”
— The Hollywood Reporter
“Dorsey triumphs with this stunning directorial debut, producing an intuitive reflection of the myriad societal pressures inflicted on both sexes by the impulses of toxic masculinity.”
— Whistler Film Festival
“Writer/Director Dorsey places us in a world seething with menace and tense spaces where bad things can happen.”
— Now Magazine
“There’s something lyrically charming and off-beat about this story… I can see this being a darling on the indie circuit.”
— Slamdance Screenplay Contest
“It’s a sign of new times when visionary women like Nicole Dorsey can take their seat in the Director’s chair,” said Heather Brooks, VP Creative Director at Groupe Connect. “Nicole’s unique approach brought a very authentic and human touch to our recent work together... as we look ahead to future projects, it’s empowering to know that our options for directors will continue to grow, increasing the likelihood that we’ll connect with the right people to bring our ideas to life.”
— Free The Bid
“A masterful sci-fi tale about the importance of human contact in a world that increasingly makes it possible to avoid. Beautifully directed by Nicole Dorsey and featuring a subtle but powerful performance by Grace Glowicki, this film is an important reminder to stay present and I could not be more thrilled to award it the A&E Short Filmmakers Award.”
— Jenna Dufton (programming manager Inside Out Toronto LGBT Film Festival)
