    β˜… 6/10

    Great footage, but I thought the storytelling left much to be desired. I can understand a "fly on the wall" approach, but this style means that the specific shots selected or the stories that are focused on become much more important artistic components for the director. Ultimately I felt the subject matter did the heavy lifting to achieve a 100% RT rating, not any special talent in the way this film specifically was put together.
