The tone feels contemplative, almost somber at times, which really gives you space to ponder the subjects. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it captures a raw, unfiltered look at the pursuit of greatness. The visuals are striking, employing practical effects that lend a tactile feel, wonderfully blending with the narrative. There's an abstract quality to the performances, as if the subjects are both revealing and concealing their truths. It’s distinctive in how it challenges conventional storytelling in documentaries, leaving you with layers to unpack after the credits roll.
