This movie was full of life, funk, and depth. A complete, dynamic view of the perspective of the plight of the New Orleans musician and how 6 men found something larger than themselves in a collective.

Not to mention, the film is chock full of jam sessions that make you want to pop out of your seat and wiggle. Fantastic doc.
