Leave your thoughts about A Woman Captured.
| Screen InternationalAllan HunterProvokes a range of responses from shock to anger and ultimately a quiet jubilation. |
| Film InquiryMusanna AhmedA Woman Captured is an astonishing documentary of a buoyantly spirited woman and the filmmaker she entrusts in sharing her life story. |
| 4:3Kenta McGrathDespite the troubled navigation of its own approach and ethics, as a documentation of human exploitation in a time and place where many won't expect to find it, A Woman Captured is illuminating viewing. |
| The Blue LensesAlexandra Heller-NicholasAn unequivocally powerful and very moving film, A Woman Captured is unflinching in its determination to emphasise how urgent and ubiquitous experiences like Marish's are. A Woman Captured is essential viewing. |
| Times (UK)Carol MidgleyThis was standout TV for which Tuza-Ritter will doubtless, and rightly, win awards. |
| The Film StageDan SchindelWhile director Bernadett Tuza-Ritter is aware of the ethical labyrinth she's entering here, the film doesn't quite successfully navigate it. |
| User ReviewLuke CIt is made as a very observational film instead of an investigative piece, sometimes it leaves you really wishing more questions were asked, but it is phenomenal access to a phenomenal woman and even with questions unanswered the film still educates on so many different levels. Sometimes questions unanswered can be a good thing as well it made me think and explore the issues more, and the film certainly changed my knowledge of the world, I did not know modern day slavery existed and I am absolutely gobsmacked. Definitely recommend people see it. |
