DOC NYC Opens with ‘Once Were Brothers: Robbie Robertson and The Band’
Once Were Brothers hits all the notes for your typical rock doc: coarse but colorful commentary from older rock stars, archival footage of musicians stepping off small planes or running into cabs to dodge press, a healthy dose of sex and drug references, and of course, an incredible soundtrack. Beyond that, your enjoyment of the film depends on your relationship with The Band.
What Haunts Us is a real-life story about how bystanders become co-conspirators.
On Sunday, November 12th, The SVA theatre was home to yet another series of documentaries that were premiered, showcased and followed by a Q&A – for the 8th year of DOC NYC.
Presented by Just Vision – “Naila and The Uprising” was in that lineup of important documentaries and it pulled on every heart string. The film left the audience in awe of the strength and bravery that up until this documentary, was barely if ever, acknowledged.
