★★★★ review by Prasath T on Letterboxd
This Documentary is about the Story of three people from the different background at the festival of Khumbh Mela.A Boy who is a Runaway claiming that his parents are dead, A family who lost their Child in the crowd of Khumbh mela festival and A Hatha Yogi Baba who adopts an abandoned Child.The Director showed the very Subtle Connection between these people which is on the base of Faith. Once again hats off to Pan Nalin for finding out the most interesting real life characters among the Khumbha Mela Crowd that contains lakh and lakh of Worshippers.This is a Wonderful Documentary which embraces out Heart somehow with the events and the beautiful Cinematography that makes us feel as if we are in that place.Its Must watch for Spiritual and Documentary Lovers..........

"Though unwieldy and overlong, Faith Connections is nevertheless a remarkably insightful film, full of stunning images and imbued with a strong sense of family and personal growth..."

★★★★ review by cinemagazine on Letterboxd
"‘Faith Connections’ is een prachtig portret van een bijzonder indrukwekkende plek. Omdat er ruim de tijd wordt genomen om de verhalen vertellen is het onvermijdelijk dat er sympathie voor de hoofdpersonages zal ontstaan. Ze hebben namelijk allemaal iets speciaals, een onvoorwaardelijke positieve blik op het bestaan. De verbinding die de mensen door het geloof hebben is mooi en oprecht, net als de film."
