This documentary is based on real life Madonna's fans stories. Each fan story is unique and touching with a different type of message- from understanding and supportive husband to passionate and admirable fans. Yet, all of the stories have the same message, that in one way or another, these portrayed Madonna's fans have been motivated to become a better person-a better version of themselves because of their idol's influence. There are a lot people who can't understand why would someone worship an artist like Madonna or would like to go above and beyond to see her in concert or to be close to her. The truth of the matter is that there's no one like the Queen-Madonna, if you really know her story-how she started when she moved from Detroit Michigan to New York. If was not an easy ride for her-like it wasn't for the fans presented on this Like a Prayer documentary.
Madonna is an icon and many people just see her as a controversial artist. The Like a Prayer Documentary Madonna's fans see Madonna beyond an artist/singer/performer, they see her as someone to look up to and to be inspired by. That's why they loved her so much and want to be close to her whenever the opportunity presents. When you hear the stories, if you are a true-fan, you can relate; or if you are a family member, you can see the whole picture. I can relate to a couple of the stories because when I first started liking Madonna, I didn't speak and understand much English and had to look up for the meaning of the words of her songs. If I look back, I can see how Madonna has influenced my life for the best. Many people don't understand what is like to be passionate about Madonna and want to see her in concert and collect her CDs, magazines, posters, etc. and get excited whenever a new product-either CD, concert, life performance, and movie comes out.
Oksana Nabokova-the Director/writer and Jennie have done a phenomenal job putting this documentary together. It has been a long process, but I can see this having a potential of having more Madonna's fan real life stories added to it, brought up to the big screens, and even become a Netflix series. Thank you so much for your effort and time put into putting this masterpiece together.
I highly recommend anyone that is Madonna fan, family member of a Madonna fan or fan of another type of artist to watch this documentary because it's touching, real, and well put together.
