Watching this film at the Cannes Film Festival was such a unique experience that I completely lost track of things I usually pay attention to-direction, script, editing, acting, everything. That’s when you know a film is truly exceptional!Sean Baker takes us on another anti-stereotypical journey, one that makes you forget about everything else happening in your life.I’m incredibly grateful to have had the privilege or watching this masterpiece at Cannes, in the iconic Grand Théâtre Lumière, sitting just a few rows away from the crew.The 10-minute standing ovation was more than well-deserved-it was electric!.
