With the motivation of exposing what family is for the director, the importance and impact of family in his life is symbolically presented through footage. Wholeness and absence in one place.
Reviews
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
Blistering performances.
