Hawa Ratings & Reviews
Decider
John Serba
Hawa is a delightful, delightfully understated neo-fable with strong performances and even stronger direction.
Variety
Tomris Laffly
A bold celebration of taking up space in places you're told you don't belong, "Hawa" is a crowd-pleasing fable with a fluffy heart, fierce spirit and disarming sense of humor.
Autostraddle
Drew Gregory
Maïmouna Doucouré has followed up her unfairly controversial debut with the ultimate crowd-pleaser.
RogerEbert.com
Marya E. Gates
Doucouré expertly explores this theme through the lens of celebrity, interrogating why we're so drawn to icons for guidance when they are just as lost as anyone else.
That Shelf
Victor Stiff
Doucouré's follow-up proves that Cuties was no fluke.
Moveable Fest
Stephen Saito
[Has] a deeply soulful core that feeds into the conviction driving Hawa to such wild ends and bound to enter even the most impenetrable of hearts.
Hammer to Nail
Christopher Llewellyn Reed
Let's give a big round of applause to Doucouré, who didn't let the manufactured controversy over her first movie stop her from upping her cinematic game. "Hawa" is a delight.
