So far from the real story…
Unrealistic!Very, very far from what we went through in the island.
So clear director is way out of touch.
Did not really draw me in
“After Maria” is an American documentary from 2019 that is partially in English, partially in Spanish and the director here is fairly experienced filmmaker Nadia Hallgren. It runs for 35 minutes plus another 2 or 3 minutes closing credits and is partially in spanish, partially in English. The Spanish component comes of course from where the documentary takes place, namely on Puerto Rico and it elaborates on life there and the aftermath of the devastating hurricane mentioned in the title. Now I must say I read that many other reviewers wrote that they do really feel this documentary represents them and shows what life is really like in Puerto Rico. I cannot elaborate on that as I live far far away and have never been there, let alone recently. So I will just say a few things about the film in general and the impact it had on me. The latter is not as much as I hoped it would be. It is really a mix of going by the books and trying to turn it desperately into a sob story. The scene with these many many empty shoes there representing the victims is really the best example. On other occasions, the movie tries to elaborate on how Puerto Ricans won’t back down and they fight in order to live fulfilling lives full of music fun and other people despite what happened not too long ago. But these scenes are clearly the minority. Most of the time, you rather hear about the citizens struggling with how long they are allowed to stay in these hotels because they lost their homes etc. Of course, not surprisingly, the filmmaker here also did his best to speak badly about President Trump. Kinda expected though and clearly this was intended to draw liberal attention to it because of course not just the movie industry, but also the small screen landscape is really Democrat these days. I don#t know how it will work out if it will work out. At least Netflix picked this one up already, which is a big boost in popularity and getting the film seen most of all already. But the rating here on imdb makes it obvious that the reception by those who know what it is really like was not positive at all. I would not go so far to call it propaganda or lies, but for me the main reason why this is not worth seeing is that I felt it offered really not too much new or informative overall despite believeing it did. I also think the potential for a far better outcome in the face of the catastrophe was there. So it’s a thumbs-down for me. Don’t watch.
