DocPoint catalog 2023 says about 10 Letters to the Future:
"This uniquely told, touching documentary is like a hopeful whisper that encourages the viewer to take action. It offers a glimpse into the days, when the hustle of society settled down and all that remained were the personal, simple parts of life, and worry for the future."
Heta Heikkala (translated by Vilma-Lotta Mustonen)
