A filmmaker explores her grandmother's fight against intolerance and anti-Semitism.

Frank Scheck

The Hollywood Reporter

Nana proves another valuable addition to the Holocaust documentary canon, exploring Maryla's important legacy in devoting much of her later years to educating people about the horrors she experienced and witnessed.

Tatiana Craine

Village Voice

With Nana, Dykman aims to carry the torch for her grandmother and other survivors by making the horror of millions profoundly personal.

Slant Magazine

The film flattens Maryla's personal story into hazy generalities about tolerance and the value of remembrance.

Rated: 2.5/4

Bust Magazine

Now more than ever we need films like Nana to remind us of what can happen when we let prejudice cloud judgment, and the amount of work that still has to be done to prevent that from happening in the future.

Lisa Jo Sagolla

Film Journal International

NANA devotes too much screen time to its filmmaker and not enough to her Auschwitz-survivor grandmother who relates riveting tales of her wartime experiences.
