Audience Member Wonderful insights only marred by seizure-inducing editing at times. If I could get my kids to sit through it and truly reflect on its content, that would be fantastic.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member I would give this 10 stars if I could. I am not one for documentaries, but this one blew me away. It was poignant, human, inspiring. Absolutely fantastic. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Read all reviews
