Viewing Notes
Fifth and final short film in the Oscar-Nominated Documentary Shorts package and the one that will win the Oscar. I will be shocked if it doesn’t win. The subject matter and location plays right into the interests of the Oscar voters.
This is really good and moved me deeply. The emphasis on children and music hit me hard having been that same kid. Great stories and impressive documentary about something I didn’t have any knowledge of prior to viewing it.
