The best documentary I've seen in years, really., 9 October 2007
10/10
Author: sammyspieler from USA

WE ARE TOGETHER has everything you could want in a film. Most films say they'll make you laugh and cry and you think it's a cliché (because 9 times out of 10 it is). WE ARE TOGETHER really will do all that, and more. It's sad, funny, brave, the music is extraordinary and it's ultimately uplifting, inspiring and incredibly well crafted. Above all, the film was clearly made with a great deal of love and the kids in the movie as well as the filmmakers should be proud of their work. I saw it at the Tribeca Film Festival, where it won a bunch of awards but I believe it's being released early next year. Cant wait to go see it again and take all my friends! I'm backing this horse for the Oscars - if that Academy has any sense that it.
