About
If you want an intense, emotionally wrenching true-story documentary, this will hit hard; Not for you if you’re looking for light viewing or prefer a distant, detached account like The Trials of Gabriel Fernandez or Making a Murderer.
Pros: intensely personal storytelling; powerful real-life emotion; memorable tear-inducing impact | Cons: extremely depressing subject; may feel hard to watch; can provoke anger
