Sugarcane

I saw Sugarcane at its New York City premiere last night. Wow. The storytelling is masterful, the film is so beautifully shot and scored. I am still devastated by what I heard and saw the next day. The filmmakers found moments of levity that made this so watchable. The four primary narratives are interwoven in a very seamless way. What is particularly stirring is the way the co-director decided to share his own story and that of his family. It's hard to believe that any of this really took place in North America over the last century. This film is So powerful and so well done. A must see for anyone who loves film.
