After seeing Rolla Selbak's second film (Three Veils) at a film festival recently, I decided to check out her first feature film, Making Maya (Btw, I got it on Amazon).
I really enjoyed this coming of age story. It was well told and the characters were complex and likable. The performances were good and honest. The film doesn't have the big budget value of Three Veils, but still Rolla managed to tell a good story. I have seem many indie films with big budgets that fail at the story level, and for that alone this film deserves high marks.
I encourage people who watch this film to then see Rolla's second film and realize how far this talented director has come. I am looking forward to her future movies.
Best, KR
