Perfect cast and a good story
This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
