About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an inspiring, music-adjacent documentary about activism and history, with firsthand reflections and archival moments; Not for you if you dislike issue-driven stories or dense timelines, like in Joe Strummer: The Future Is Unwritten.
Pros: inspiring life story; powerful archival footage; moving social justice focus | Cons: too much for runtime; distracting visual distortions
