maureen 05/14/2024 Very powerful. A little dis-jointed in some places. See more Perla Grigg 05/03/2024 Max Lugavere's 'Little Empty Boxes' hits you right in the feels. It's a heartfelt documentary about his luchadora (fighter) of a mami, Kathy, as she battles a mysterious kind of dementia. Mami Kathy's world starts to slip through her fingers, and Max dives in cabeza primero (head first) to understand this illness. He talks to doctors, busca (seeks) answers beyond pills, and wonders if what they eat might be playing a part. The film is a cruda y desgarradora (raw and heartbreaking) look at Mami Kathy's journey, the struggles of being a cuidador (caregiver), and the fierce love of a son who just wants to help his mami hold onto what she has left.

See more Lila S 06/28/2024 What a heartbreaker of a movie, and so clearly a labor of love by the filmmaker Max Lugavere. It sheds light on how personally devastating dementia is for the person who has it and their family members, in this case a relatively "young" senior. Interspersed with the story is the latest information available about lifestyle choices that could potentially mitigate this disease, but it seems there are still no definitive answers.
