This film is an argument as to why films need to be made. It tells an interesting (and true!) story which parallels the present (fake news, young people protesting, accountability, fascism...) in a dynamic way, well directed and flawlessly performed while offering no easy, cut and dry, black and white solutions. It's very hard to find something wrong with this movie, and it deserves more recognition than it will get.
