I won't go into tremendous detail of a plot summary or why this documentary is significant as other reviewers have done so already. I would like to point out that the film does a great job summarizing and showing the child-artist Marla, and for that I'm glad there's a comprehensive film about her and her family. However, in the last quarter of the film, Bar-Lev insists on making it clear his opinion regarding the central issue in the film. I found this rather tactless on his part, and I felt like I was being spoon-fed a quick final conclusion that he felt was, for some reason, necessary.
A really great film but I really did find the ending frustrating.
