Marias (2015)
visually rich and beautiful, but lacking in content

This film, beyond its beautiful direction and photography, does a very interesting job in an audiovisual level, presenting an overview on the women of Latin America, its ethnic variety and its religious culture. However, despite the beauty of form and the touching content in some ways, it doesn't strike as a very deep documentary - definitely, beyond the emotional level, it could have explored a lot more (in a scientific, sociological level) the complexity of gender, miscegenation and religious issues in the Latin American society. Despite the quality of the images and the subject chosen, the film unfortunately seem to have a much more religious and emotional appeal than a journalistic, scientific or informative one.
