There's real courage in leaping up and riding the railing down a flight of stairs, putting your faith entirely in your balance and the board
One of the best, most relatable documentaries I've ever seen about growing up.
Absolutely perfect. Such an amazing story that has so much built into. At times it doesn’t even feel like a documentary
A meditation on fatherhood, childhood, and everything in between. Good for a think and a cry. Excellent editing.
An incredibly poignant and emotional documentary, from the unique perspective of one of its subjects. I didn’t expect to feel this much
A nonchalant look into three lives burdened with abuse and its effect on them. Also a trek of manhood.
ACADEMY AWARD!! why tf does it only have 3 stars y’all blind or sum ...
Genuine filmmaking that captures a time a place perfectly. Really warm feeling despite some of the situations these guys are in
Clearly a passion project that feels extremely raw and personal. A great watch
A poignant film about loss of innocence and growing up. It got me kinda close to tearing up. Worth the watch, but have some tissues
