“At the heart of ERNEST COLE: LOST AND FOUND is a stirring lament of the exiled South African photographer, is the devastating image of a life deferred.” – Robert Daniels, Screen International

“Watching ERNEST COLE: LOST AND FOUND, you’re moved by a life that veered into tragedy, yet the place it lands lifts you up. More than a great photographer, Ernest Cole captured something essential. By the end you feel the ghost is speaking to you.” – Owen Gleiberman, Variety
