Well then there is almost no question that you will like this too. Filled mostly with music played live, this is something to behold. Interjected are a few soundbites. And some drawings from the movie. So this is not entirely a concert kind of documentary.

But the main things is that you like the music and it is quite epic (no matter what you think of it). It's short and sweet and for anyone who likes music in movies - especially when it comes to orchester. As some would say the music speaks for itself ... (it would have been nice to see some quotes from Peter Jackson too, but that's how it is)

The documentary is a form of non-fiction storytelling that aims to present factual information, insights, and perspectives on real-world subjects, events, issues, or people. Documentaries can cover a wide range of topics, including history, science, culture, social issues, nature, biographies, and more.
