"At once a road movie, an autobiographical chronicle of tricky family relations, an inquiry into artistic responsibility and � courtesy of one protracted and genuinely disturbing sequence that may be too much for some viewers to bear � a harrowing glimpse into mental illness, the film will spark debate and polarize opinions around the nonfiction festival circuit."
