Leave your thoughts about Take Care of Maya.
| The Daily BeastNick SchagerThis wrenching documentary—culminating with commentary from some of the 100 other families who contacted director Roosevelt with similar tales of false-abuse-allegations woe—gives captivating voice to their sorrow and outrage. |
| Rolling StoneChris VognarWith the hospital and its primary representative in the case, Dr. Sally Smith, refusing to cooperate with the filmmakers, Take Care of Maya is necessarily one-sided. That side is rendered with sympathy and sensitivity, and a lingering, frustratingly unanswered question: How exactly does something like this happen? |
| IndieWireKate ErblandThat sense of a story rendered incomplete, of answers we may never fully know, is at the heart of the Kowalskis’ story, but Roosevelt’s film is unable to square that with the constraints and demands of a feature film. |
| Los Angeles TimesNoel MurrayAn absorbing and challenging film, capturing the frustration of being held in limbo by a system that seems to prioritize punishment over appeals. |
| The New York TimesNatalia WinkelmanTake Care of Maya is grueling, but it is also oddly deficient, wanting for the precision and perspective essential to deriving insight from profound trauma. |
| User ReviewJLuis_001The documentary itself is quite practical and covers the incredibly **** up case very well, but a part of me felt that it was too passive in its interest in not taking a critical side of the events that occurred and the people involved. However, it is worth it. Especially for digging into a reality that should scare several parents. |
