a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
