Film Comment Magazine
[S]mart and pleasing....Clocking in at just under 90 minutes, YELLA is a modest, haunting, highly economical work that rewards repeated viewings.
Film Comment
[T]his unusual film has the appearance of simply being a well-done drama, but there is considerably more on writer-director Christian Petzold's mind.

Rating: 3/5 --
The twist ending that softens the blow of this otherwise unique and atmospheric work is not for me to ruin, but it should be said that it shows a chink in the filmmaker's armor
Filmcritic.com
A strange blend of corporate thriller and supernatural mystery.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
The German offering Yella begins with an utterly gripping first 15 minutes, follows with a passable drama and ends with a big disappointment.

Chicago Tribune
Strikes a perfect balance between corporate intrigue and metaphysical mystery; his 2007 drama is filled with suspense but ends in delicious ambiguity.

She finds a promising job with Philipp, a handsome business executive with whom an unlikely romance soon blossoms. But just as Yella seems poised to realize her dreams, she finds herself haunted by buried truths that threaten to destroy her newfound happiness. Christian Petzold’s Yella is a stylish and deliciously suspenseful mystery.
