Trivia:
Singer was permitted to use a 16mm Bolex on loan from a camera house in New York without up-to-date payments. He was given left-over film stock on a "pay-later" basis from Kodak and other resources. The lab in New York that processed his negatives and prints also granted him this favor. He began editing on a flatbed, before he was granted the use of an avid at practically no charge from a friend of a friend. He also had complete and total creative control over the project and its final cut, also a rarity. moreFAQ

It's been told and retold the story of the making of this film, and I won't do that here, but let me just mention that when a documentary so effectively and succinctly captures the vibes of its subjects without either overbearing direction or (the eternally cursed) voice over, it is a good thing. I saw this on the big screen, and part of my love of this film already came from watching it with a group of other people. Situations changed, stories were told. The documentary with a narrative arc and undeniable authenticity is such a rare species. Particularly touching was the presence of dogs proving we are all alike in our need for companionship. Singer doesn't linger too long on one idea and allows the viewer room to exist within the outstanding atmosphere he creates.
Outstanding and impossible to imagine it not having been released properly in Sydney until its now 2 week run.
